QT and ID3 tags have absolutely nothign in common at all... you really can't use them together. on thee file side of things you can extract tag data to your own datatypes of choice, but when you come to display this data, it is simply generic data you are inserting into tables and such like., so the two do not know about each others existance......

you're joking right?

like i said, they are NOT RELATED. there is no way to implement this (whatever "this" is meant to be) as they are not used in the same scope.

ankitgdit,

Are you just wanting to know how to extract the information you want from the mp3? If so that can't be too hard..

I went to google did a search for: mp3 file structure header

And the first link was: http://www.multiweb.cz/twoinches/MP3...3FileStructure


That might help you, let us know how you get along..

Cheers]

You may want to check out www.id3.org - it's a site about the ID3 standard and how to implement code for extracting the ID3 information.
You may also want to check out http://id3lib.sourceforge.net/ which is the homepage for a id3 library that simplifies writing and reading of ID3 tags.
