ID3 data in media info object

Post by jordanrynard »

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to use a custom naming scheme for my music (via the CLI) but I'm having trouble accessing one piece of data.

I know you can access ID3 Data via the media.xxx vars, but I can't figure out how to retrieve the ID3 Year data. Is this possible? Either through the media info object or some other method?

My example string: "musicFormat=Music/{n.ascii()}/{media.Album.ascii()} ({media.Year})/{media.TrackPosition.pad(2)} - {n.ascii()} - {t.ascii()}"

'media.Year' doesn't hold a value; that's the one I'm trying to get...

I've ensured that the ID3 data exists for the files being renamed.

Thanks!

You can use the format editor in the GUI and prototype things. You can also check all available media info for a given file.
