How to access Metadata from audio files

[Nisha_R]

@p3c0 thank you.

@p3c0 Thank you again,
i have got it right when i set the relative path for the mp3 file i,e the source , but when i try to access the mp3 files from resources it is still undefined.

[p3c0]

@Nisha_R How did you set the source ?

[Nisha_R]

@p3c0 ,
i had initially dumped the mp3 files in resources folder and tried to access those in my code.

[p3c0]

@Nisha_R No. I meant to say the source url. What does it look like? Can you post it ? Checking if the url from resource is correct.

[Nisha_R]

@p3c0 this is what i have given.
Audio {
id: playMusic
source: "qrc:/music/2.mp3;"
}
music being the folder in resources.

@Nisha_R Why the extra semicolon at the end in source ?
Does the Application Output show any errors ?

[Nisha_R]

@p3c0 there is no error with respect to the semicolon .
setting its path with respect to resources shows undefined, but when its relative path is set the metadata is displayed.

[p3c0]

@Nisha_R Did you try removing the semicolon ?
Also are you sure the file is present at the same location in the resource ?

[Nisha_R]

@p3c0
yes , i have tried, still undefined.

[p3c0]

@Nisha_R Does it play from resources ? Can you post a complete minimal example with this Audio element here?

[Nisha_R]

@p3c0 okay that will be helpful.
