Re: Any ideas how to get and set properties of an mp3 file in perl?

Are these properties of MS Word documents? If so, I'm sure the Win32 API for Word has the means by which to get and set those values.

You want to edit ID3 tags, either ID3v1 (fixed max field length) or ID3v2 (newer, variable content). Check out MP3::Tag for example. It's a very powerful, and as a consequence, a rather hard to use module. There may be some more focussed, less heavyweight modules for your perusal on CPAN.	[reply]
