Getting .wav ID Tags in python

[dbsmith]

Hey,
Just trying to do some simple things in Python on a .wav file.
When i mouse hover over the .wav file in windows explorer, I can see the ID Tag info fine. But when I try and query it, I get nothing.

I'm using 64bit Windows 7, which may be the problem (?)

Code (changed comments from hash to // ):

import win32com.client
dmc = win32com.client.Dispatch("dMCScripting.Converter")

// Read audio properties on file
audioProperties = dmc.AudioProperties("test.wav")
print "props:", audioProperties

// Read ID_Tag
tagValue = ""
i = 0
while tagValue is not None:
	
	tagValue = dmc.ReadIDTagElementValue("test.wav", i)
	print "tag: ", tagValue
	
	if tagValue == "":
		break
	
	i += 1
	
print "Number idTags: ", i

Here's the result:


props: dBpoweramp__ CD (Lossless)ps(0% Compressed)rmat [.wav]
tag:
Number idTags: 0

How can i get the tag information that I can see in windows fine?
Cheers!

Re: Getting .wav ID Tags in python

Try the vb.net example for reading the tags, does that work?

Also you should pass a full path including drive of audio track.
