Re^2: Get MP3 Album Art with MP3::Tag

Thanks for the reply!

I was hoping to be able to print out to a browser directly to save having to create files?

I thought that the following would achieve this, but when loaded from a Web Server the image only shows as the Red X , meaning it is corrupt.

print "Content-type: image/jpeg\n\n";

print $Pic->{_Data};
[download]

Any ideas? I will try the output to a file later on to see if I can get any further.

You have to set binmode to STDOUT just like you did to the file. This example works off Windows running Apache2 and ActiveState perl 5.8 `#!C:/Perl/bin/perl use MP3::Tag; my $mp3 = MP3::Tag->new("withimage.mp3") or die "no File"; $mp3->get_tags; $id3v2 = $mp3->{ID3v2}; my $Pic = $id3v2->get_frame("APIC"); # returns print "Content-type:image/jpeg\r\n\r\n"; binmode STDOUT; print STDOUT $Pic->{_Data};` [download] jtrue	[reply] [d/l]
