Extract embedded CUEsheet from FLAC file #934
Comments
File please. |
Hehe, for now i've only found this poor sample: |
weird file, I don't understand the meaning of "cuesheet" content (include PERFORMER, TITLE...), I just catch the tag in the file and provide it as is ("here " / " are replacing carriage returns) |
Cue sheet is a format in itself, so MediaInfo would either have to implement Cue sheet parsing or simply return it unparsed so it could be parsed by existing Cue sheet parsers. Replacing " / " back to line feeds can be problematic because it might be that the Cue sheet itself could contain this character sequence. |
Thanks @Nadahar, so PERFORMER, TITLE... make sense here.
Currently the case (beside issue with " / "): you retrieve the content from "cuesheet" field, then parse it (intermediate temporary action: replace " / " with carriage return).
Definitely a bad design choice some time ago when I had only the text output. |
Ok, then for reference i leave a link here: And that one in Java: A better FLAC with embedded cuesheet sample should be found here: |
This is how look the structure of an external CUE file: |
@JeromeMartinez Great +1 |
@JeromeMartinez Shouldn't such parameters as "cuesheet" be added somewhere in the internal help documentation specifying that additional "general" string can be used? EDIT: |
Which one? ;-) |
|
I'll be a bit spiteful: looks like documentation status is considered "enough" so not really a pain, at least it is not worth having more for most people. (Note: I know you use MediaInfo on your spare time and you send lot of patches and do lot of tests, not willing to be spiteful to you especially, just general remark) |
I'm very happy to have discovered that "pass-through" ability ;) Well, i hope you didn't get that remark for you, i mean i didn't even managed to get the courage and will to document our project. It wasn't negative, just that most project around are badly documented for some reason and maybe you are right that people don't read it that much in that era. |
I think this is too much details for |
It was just to make the add painless, but forget about, my point was not to make you upset about the documentation :( |
but I don't forget to add the option for having carriage returns correctly, ETA this week. |
Thank you very much 👍 |
I wasn't able to find a parameter related to CUE for extracting such data from FLAC files.
Is that possible by now? what is the name of the "general" parameter?
