[Minim] MetaData error with mp3s?
Apr 25th, 2009, 5:11pm
 
Hello -

I keep receiving this error:

==== JavaSound Minim Error ====
==== Error parsing ID3v2: String index out of range: -131

when trying to load .mp3 AudioSamples. Is there a way to make minim ignore meta data? We switched from .wav to .mp3 to get a faster load time, but this error makes everything load even slower (though it does eventually run).

Hi

I had the same issue with mp3 encoded from ITunes. A friend of mine tried to compress the soundtrack with an another software and the problem of ID3v2 seems to be solved.

In this website, in the Learning part>libraries>Minim (sound)>Get Meta Data, you will find code to get meta data (sorry, I'm not allowed to post link yet)

Running this code, there is an error with my ITunes mp3 (at "Track" field – I had to desactivate it)  and none with mp3 encoded differently.
