Hi Bill, Hi folks
I want to script it for several reasons. I know the details about id3
tags and managed to decode them by a script. But my scripts have some
problems with embedded covers so I wanted to use what the Finder shows
in the get info dialog.
The Finder shows artist, year and album from mp3 files. So I hope
there's a way to "steal" this information...
cheers,
