Metadata information for image and audio files

Hi,

I have been using GDI+ and Windows Media SDK to get the metadata
information for image and audio files respectively.

Just incase if someone is not clear as to what I mean by metadata
information, its the information regarding the image or audio files
like., height and width for the image.,. Title, artist, author etc for
the audio files.

Now that I need to port my code to Linux, I would like to know if there
is/are any c++ library that would work both in linux and windows???

I found few libraries similar to GDI+ and WMSDK for linux like TagLib.
But I would like to have one single library that will work on both the
platform. I dont mind if I have to use separate libraries for image and
audio files.

Thanks in Advance.
Karthik.

Have you consulted Nikki Locke's Available C++ Libraries FAQ?

Does anyone aware of any program/apps/scripts that has the ability to modify/add/create/delete metadata in any image type such as JPEG, GIF, PNG, etc. Question for the experts, is it wise to store information in the image file instead of the database? Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm using the System.Drawing.Imaging.Bitmap to retrieve and modify the metadata tags (user comments, keywords etc) of JPEGS. I was wondering if changing these tags in any way degrades the image quality of the JPEG. I am using SetPropertyItem to change the tag value and then calling the Save method to save the JPEG under a different name (you have to do this because GDI holds a lock on the original file).... If there is...

Hi, I need help with creating .txt and .doc files form c#. I know how to create these files so that they contain the text I want, but besides that text, I also need to write metadata (hope that the term is right) to these files. That means that I have a string 'title', a string 'author' and a string 'date' that I need to "attach" to the file. Off course, these information (title, author and date) should not be written "into the file", but...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
