Mp3 AlbumArt Resize

I'm working on a media player which plays mp3 files....
I've got the ID3 tags to work by using com.fusiox.Media package...
I'm getting a problem when i try to load an Album Art from the file...
The code is right as i can see the album art, but i'm not able to resize it...
e.g. i want the width to be 128, initialy before opening an mp3, the width is set to 128, but when the mp3 loades,
      it is assigned to watevar the width of the album art, say 240..
Thus, dynamic resizing logic is also not working as initially Image.width contains 128 and then it changes !!
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks !

These are true... I'm using them in the properties...
But still it wasn't working...
I stored the albumArt to another local file 'cover.png'...
var Path = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("cover.png").nativePath.toString();
                currAlbumArt.source = null;
                currAlbumArt.source = Path;
Thanks!

  • Please help-Trying to compress to Mpeg-2 for Convention, also resizing issues

    Hello,
    I just recently finished making an AMV in Adobe Premiere 5.5, and I am having trouble trying to figure out how to compress it into an Mpeg-2 source for a competition/convention.
    I also have these massive black borders on the side of my video that I know is probably due to improper resizing on my part, and although I have tried to remedy this with a new avisynth script of the exported uncompressed AVI (before compressing to MPEG-2), whenever I try to run the avisynth script in either VirtualDubMod or TMPGEnc (the converting program recommended by: http://www.animemusicvideos.org/guides/mpegforcons/) it crashes, although the original video does work.
    This is the avisynth script I have created for the post-video:
    FFVideoSource("C:\Users\Freeman\Desktop\Fight the Power.avi")
    FFCopyrightInfringement("C:\Users\Freeman\Desktop\Fight the Power.avi")
    AssumeFPS("23.976")
    SSRC(48000)
    LanczosResize(720,352)
    AddBorders(0,64,0,64)
    per the recommendations from the guide listed below
    I do not know if the resizing I have set up in the new avisynth script will fix my resizing issues, and I would like to improve that as much as possible, so if someone could clarify for me, that would be greatly appreciated.
    You may also notice some audio issues throughout the video, however on further playback this never appears to happen in the same place. I believe this is caused by poor audio quality, and I have a friend of mine working on setting up a lossless source that I will try to recompress with the video before friday, however if someone else might know what is causing this, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Here is the current MPEG-2 I have, however for obvious reasons, I do not consider it acceptable as of yet:
    http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IIKYWRXF
    The original export from Premiere is Microsoft AVI Uncompressed, and then attempted to convert to MPEG-2 (I tried multiple settings, they all have the same sizing issues), and as I said before, no matter what I try to do with the avisynth script, it crashes.
    I have even tried taking out every line from the new avisynth script except for the first two detailing the location of the video and audio, however this does nothing, it still crashes.
    I had to convert all my original source avisynth scripts to AVI files (that are massive, as I am editing from 52 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood), and so editing the original scripts is impossible at this point, because to my knowledge, that would mean I would have to reconvert them all to AVI, which took over 16 hours, and then that would probably make me have to re-edit this entire video (which if you look at it, based on length and how much work I've put into it: is impossible, especially given the time constraints).
    So anything that I can do to fix this will have to be done to the export from Premiere, unless there is a way to work with the AVI's that I made from the avisynth scripts.
    The source is primarily 16:9 DVD (Fullmetal Alchemist) and very few parts from a 4:3 DVD (Naruto). (You can recognize these parts in the video, it is whenever someone is rowing in a boat during the lyrics "Row Row")
    The avisynth script for all the fullmetal alchemist DVD's is as follows:
    mpeg2source("F:\DVD RIPS\Music Video Rips\Brotherhood\Disc 1 (1-7)\MainMovie\FMA_BROTHERHOOD_P1_D1\FMAB 1-7.d2v", cpu=4)
    ConvertToYV12()
    Spline36Resize(848,480)
    #TTempSmooth()
    FastLineDarkenMod()
    LSFmod(strength=120)
    LUTDeRainbow()
    And the avisynth script for the one Naruto DVD is as follows:
    mpeg2source("F:\DVD RIPS\Music Video Rips\Random\Row Row\MainMovie\ROW ROW\VTS_01_1.d2v")
    TFM()
    TDecimate()
    Spline36Resize(848,636)
    Crop(0,78, 0,-78)
    These recommendations came from what I could figure out from:
    http://www.animemusicvideos.org/guides/avtech31/
    If anyone is curious, the song is "Libera me from Hell", and it is 44100 from what I could tell when I ran it in WINAMP (I converted it from mp3 to wav through WINAMP, if there is a better way that I am unaware of, please let me know).
    I know this is extremely long, and thank you anyone who has taken their time to look through it, it is greatly appreciated.
    The deadline for this is friday (5/20/11), so I need help with this ASAP and thanks,
    Dexter

    Dexter,
    Those "black borders," if they are visible in the Program Monitor, are most likely due to a mis-match between the Source Files and the Sequence Preset.
    If they are only showing up upon Export, then there is likely a mis-match between your Sequence and your Export, and could be either with the Aspect Ratio, or if using non-square pixels, the PAR (Pixel Aspect Ratio).
    I'll defer any commens on AVISynth to the experts here.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Flash Catalyst CS5 resizable application with webpage zoom?

    Hi guys,
    I've come back to Catalyst cs5 after a long while of not using it and am wondering if it is possible to create something and make it resizable?
    I seem to remember reading a while back about a way to do it in flash builder but can't for the life of me find the discussion again.
    What I have is a basic photo gallery with thumbnails on the side and one large image that changes when you click the thumbnail. All this is great on a standard webpage but when you zoom in on the web browser with CTRL and + or zoom out with CTRL and -  the SWF stays the same size. I'd like to be able to make it so the SWF resizes with the zoom so people with trouble seeing can view it bigger.
    Does anybody have any idea how I can do this, if it is possible? (Baring in mind I can't upgrade to Catalyst 5.5)
    Thanks,
    Gareth

    Hi,
    That really helped me out!
    I was playing around with importing all different file types to see what would crash Flash Catalyst and it appears to just be .flv files, because it imports images, mp3s, and swf files and .f4v video files with no problems. Hey, at least now I can continue importing videos as long as they are .f4v's!
    Would still be helpful to figure out why it doesn't like .flv's though...
    The step are: File>Import>Video/Sound File...Dialogue box opens, I choose any .flv file (include files which seemed to work fine before) and the program just quits itself giving me the error report window. When I use .f4v files no such problem occurs...
    Will send you a yousendit link containing one of the guilty .flv files now - this is a .flv file I used in creating a page with flash Catalyst just days ago before it decided it would no longer import them.
    Thanks for your help so far

  • How do I get mp3 files to appear with album cover thumbnails?

    how do I get mp3 files to appear with album cover thumbnails? when I updated my ITunes now all my mp3 files
    that had thumbs have no thumbs...thanks

    First, you have to embbed picture into mp3 file with idtag editors (tagalicious, musicbrainz picard, mp3tag, id3tag editor...).
    Then you'll have to install at least Itunes 10.5.1(42), even if you're not using Itunes at all.
    Albumarts will now appear in every folder from the finder.
    I closed my topic because I solved it :

    Is it the same for you ?

  • Mp3 opens in new window ... can I control SIZE of window?

    I am opening both an mp3 in a new window \ and a Quicktime movie. Two separate links. But both come up as a Safari window quite large. They can be immediately resized of course, but it will be annoying for the visitor to have to do so. I want the window to be the size of the element, more or less ... the mp3 a control bar in a little box, and the Quicktime in a box the size of the Quicktime frame.
    Is there a way to have this happen without writing html into the iWeb code after-the-fact. I'm trying to show the client how easy it is to do his own website changes on the road. Writing html ain't going to turn his crank.
    All ears,
    Ben

    On this page at the bottom left of the text you see two links.
    The first one displays a window you want and the second link displays the code you need.
    http://www.wyodor.net/MoreEmbed/
    You have to paste the JavaScript in the HTML Snippet and change the URL to your page.

  • Why is iTunes not showing mt MP3 album artwork?

    I noticed after the latest iTunes update that most of the artwork I manually added in the last year to songs has gone missing. About a year ago I began adding new songs using the MP3 encoder. Previous songs were all loaded as AAC files. The AAC files all are fine. The artwork image still shows on the MP3 file icon in windows explorer so I assume it is still embedded in the file.
    Deleting and re-adding the file back into iTunes doesn't help.
    The Comments info box for the problem files also now includes a weird string of code that wasn't there before.
    00000000 00000210 00000ACC 000000000075C224 00000000 00355D39 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
    Finally, I noticed the iTunes folder now has an Album Artwork folder in it and It contains two folders Local and Download in it. I don't remember these from prior versions of iTunes. I could be wrong?
    My guess is iTunes changed the way it keeps track of artwork in files and re-organized itself from older versions, but had a problem with MP3 files. It then put a notation in comments and stopped showing the embedded artwork.
    Does anyone know what's going on here.

    I've always assumed those silly strings were recording the results of the gapless playback analysis but whatever they're for it would be better if they were stored in a spare field.
    Windows Media Player/Windows Explorer may be less fussy on embedded artwork formats than iTunes or the media file might actually be missing the art but the Windows Explorer cache (Thumbs.db) still shows it. You say removing-reimporting doesn't help but I assume you can still paste new artwork in and have it remembered. If so you might want to use the following tool to at least take some of the effort out of searching out which tracks you need to repair.
    *How to find tracks without artwork*
    To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant jpeg images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
    I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.

  • Can't find image for the albumart on my phone??

    Hello everybody!
    I have downloaded an album with mp3-songs through SymTorrent to my N95-1. The thing is that if I browse the folder with the album I cannot find any albumcover. BUT when I start the musicplayer the cover is there automaticlly. Can someone explain how this is possible? I really would like to know because if I put the albumart in any other albumfolder it syncs away when I sync my images.
    /Niklas, Sweden
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I downloaded the album directly on the phone with from a torrent-file. In the torrent-file the albumart is NOT included. If I browse the memorycard with X-plore on my phone with "Display hidden files" to ON i can only see mp3-files. If I browse it on my computer through "Mass storage" I can only see mp3-files.
    In my gallery on the phone I cannot see the albumart either. Since I don't know the filename of it I can't search for it either. I have tried with guessing some words but no success.
    Can the album be stored INSIDE mp3-files? Or is Nokias musicplayer smart and download it for me?
    Thanks

  • Can't export MP3 audio from Premiere Elements 9

    I want to export the audio from my movie.  The File, Export option appears to be unavailable, regardless of what I do; I saw elsewhere on the forum that all exporting is now done through the Share tab, and referring to PE8, the post recommended the "share to computer" tab.  Under advanced options, I set the audio to be exported as an MP3, with no video.  However, the "advanced" button leads to a screen with 3 tabs: "Format," "Video," and "Audio."  I can make those changes under the "Audio" tab with no problem, and because I have chosen to export only the audio, there is no information under the "video" tab.  The problem is that the "Format" tab only gives me two options, ".flv" and ".fl4" or something like that, and the resulting file appears to be a 7 second long, blank and silent video, played by Windows Live Movie Maker.  How can I get my audio exported?

    Are you using version 8 or version 9? It's hard to tell because you reference both.
    In version 9, if you go to the Share tab and select the Computer option, you'll be taken to a screen with seven output options.
    Audio wil be listed as your last option. (You do have to click on the Audio listing to select it.) and MP3s are certainly among the options listed on the Preset menu.
    If you can't see it, you need to scroll down or resize your panels -- or your computer monitor may not be large enough. But it's there.

  • How do you resize columns in Ipod app?

    I can't see the entire song name in the Ipod app - is there a way to resize the columns in this app (in song view)?

    Ditto here... it's VERY annoying that only a few characters are visible of my MP3 collection. Unlike most people, I've decided not to use ID1 or ID2 tags on my CD collection, and therefore rely on the filename itself that will display:
    Artist Name - [Album Name - 01] Track Name.mp3
    Artist Name - [Album Name - 02] Track Name.mp3
    Artist Name - [Album Name - 03] Track Name.mp3
    Artist Name - [Album Name - 04] Track Name.mp3
    With the iPad, it's pretty much just the "Artist Name" that I would see, and nothing else.
    APPLE PLEASE HELP, as there has to be a better way!

  • Odd add'l file names in ripped iTunes folders (like "._01 songname.mp3")

    Lately when I rip from my iMac into a shared iTunes library from which I also sync Windows computers, I see files like "._01 songname.mp3" in addition to "songname.mp3". These odd files are very small. I also rip on my Windows PC -- these don't seem to create those files. Then, I've been copying them to SD cards to copy to the HD in my new car stereo and then end up there, but are not playable. What are they? Do I need them at all? Can I delete them on my file server? (I know I can delete them on my SD card and car HD.) But, what are they and can I delete them all over?
    Thanks for any ideas.
    -Bruce
    PS: I've seen files before called "albumart" something when I've ripped a CD and there was no artwork for it in the iTunes store and I copy something from say the Amazon store.

    Matt,
    When you burn the MP3 CD with iTunes, it names each file on the CD as "number title," independent of what the original file name was. The number corresponds to its position in the playlist from which you are burning. (It does not modify the filename on your hard drive.)
    I believe that will accomplish the sequencing you are looking for. Give it a try and let us know.

  • Help with mediaelement audio player, iPad resizing, and lytebox.

    I'm a noob but trying to build my own site in iWeb and using Coda to edit code.
    I am a music producer and my website has a page on it that showcases some audio.
    I have 3 issues that after about 30 hours of research and fiddling...I can't for the life of me figure out.
    I am a music producer and my website has a page on it that showcases some audio.
    1. Lytebox - I am using a lytebox to open a page I designed (HTML page in iWeb) that has 2 links on it so the viewer can choose where they want to go. When said lytebox opens and one clicks one of the two links, the linked page will open within the lytebox. I dont want this. I want the lytebox to close and the linked page to navigate normally in a regular web page.
         After much research I have found a code that lytebox posted to be able to do such a thing. They posted this code:
              <a href="javascript:void(0)"
                      onclick="parent.$lb.end()">End Lytebox from my page inside Lytebox</a>
         I have pasted that code everywhere I can think of and it doesn't work. I'm not even sure where to post it (on the first page where the lytebox links from? on      the page that opens in lytebox? on the page lytebox is linking to?)
         Here is the page i'm referring to: http://dallaskruse.com/dallaskruse.com/dallaskruse.html
         The lytebox link is in the Gramophone at the bottom left of the page.
    2. MediaElement Audio Player - I am trying to build a page where I can showcase about 15-20 audio clips (about 20-30) seconds each.  It is very important to me to be able to hear/view this page correctly on multiple browsers along with tablets and mobile phones. Someone recommended medialement.js.
    After HOURS of trying to figure this out, I finaly found a way to add multiple players but not have them load the audio so as to not slow down the web page...and it just was simply not loading on an iPad.
    Here's my issue:
         I couldn't figure out how to design (in code) how to add text (song name, artist info, etc) that was to my liking in the HTML so I added the <audio> player via <HTML> and just added text around it in iWeb manually. Problem: iPad is somehow resizing the layout and by the time you get to the bottom of the page, the <audio> players have moved and are now covering up the text. Its all a big mess.
         Question: can mediaelement.js use a jukebox style playback?
         Here's a link to the page in question: http://dallaskruse.com/dallaskruse.com/arrangements.html
    3. MediaElement Not Playing Back on iPad - I've ran some tests and when I just have 1 <audio> player on the page, it'll play fine on the iPad. But when there's more than 1 player then none of the <audio> players want to work. I'm not sure what's going on but even after about 20+ hours of sitting at my laptop, I'm thinking of searching around for a jukebox that has HTML5 and Flash fallback that looks NICE and easy to modify for beginners.
    If ANYONE has ANY pointers or can help in ANY way ... I'd be forever greatful. Sorry for the long post.

    in iWeb, on the page in question, i've only got 2 HTML snippets (windows). One for the "Vocals" and one for the "Orchestrations".
    In the HTML snippet, I've coded in 12 players for the "Vocals" snippet and 10 in the other snippet for the "Orchestrations" players.
    So, I guess I only have 2 snippets.
    heres the "Vocals" code

  • Problems with resizing video

    I have a video which I would like to be able to play on my HTC Hero smartphone. The video size is 480 x 272 pixels. According to my friend, I have to resize it to fit in my smartphone device resolution, which is 3.2-inch TFT-LCD touch-sensitive screen with 320x480 HVGA resolution. However, I installed QuickTime Pro 7. I tried to resize it under Inspector Movies Property and I get an error saying that the timecode is invalid or something like that. I also noticed the file size would be in kilobytes than in megabytes. I tried extracting the video and editing from there but that did not work.
    The problem is when I tried to play it on my smartphone, I cannot get the picture, I get a blank green coloured screen. The audio track work fine.

    I have both Flip4Mac WMV and Perian installed. I do not have DIVX installed. You want me to convert the video? If so, which format? Alright then, I will send you a sample of the video.
    If you have one of the "Studio" ($49 or more) level versions of Flip4Mac installed, I would recommend a WMV conversion since it is very standardized and specifically mentioned as being supported by your device. (Even if you only have the free player installed, you should be able to make up to a 30-second "demo" conversion for testing purposes.) Converting to Perian AVI could be iffy but your could try an MPEG4, H264, or H264 video with AAC, MP3, or WAV audio. (Official AVI support was dropped by originator a decade ago but Windows seem unwilling to "move on" to more modern file types.) The mere fact that WMV support is specifically mentioned leads me to think the multimedia player may be more "Windows" based than Mac based. Let us know how your test turns out as this may be an issue for other Mac users of this device.
    I only have the free player and I am not very keen on paying $49 or more for these softwares. It is far fetch for me. I will make an attempt to try to convert the video and see what happen.
    Erm...How do I do this? I had a look in System Preferences.

  • How can I extract both my mp3 file and its associated .jpg out of itunes

    Hi everybody,
    I'm a DJ and once a month, I like to share a set of mine with my friends. For each set, I also make a dedicated flyer.
    I usually put the recorded set in Itunes, then I add the flyers using the "Illustration" (I'm using a French version) tag.
    Then, I drag the new file (both the .mp3 and .jpg) on a folder on my computer and I can see the flyers and not the normal Mac icon for music file.
    I had always worked, but today I tried to do the same but it doesn't work anymore. In Itunes, my mp3 file contain the flyers, but when I drag it to another folder, the flyer is not there anymore.
    What happened???
    does anybody know a freeware to associate a mp3 with a .jpg?
    Thanks for your help,
    Have a nice day

    Bonjour.
    I'm not firm with the french iTunes but I'm sure its similar to all other iTunes in the world, except the language of the menus.
    You can include the cover (Illustration) inside the music file. mp3, AAC or Lossless makes no difference.
    To do so go to:
    The song (or songs) by marking it (them) in the main iTunes window. Then right click mouse (or two fingers on touchpad) and choose "Information"
    In the information window go to the tab called "cover"
    Move the wanted picture via drag & drop into this window. The best format for such illustrations are 500 x 500 pixels. If yours are bigger then iTunes will resize it to fit.
    Click on save
    If you will change the cover for more than one file (song) you will be ask "you are sure to change all files"
    Simply press ok
    After that the cover will show up in iTunes and will be exported within the file if you pass the song to others..
    There is no reason to place the cover / Illustration in the Music folder cause iTunes uses for imported covers the "Album Artwork" Folder in the Library.

  • Why Does My Mp3 Audio Behind Video Clip Cut To Length Of Video Clip?

    Ok. So I am trying to put together a music video using iMovie 11, and am having the hardest time getting started. I put my selected video clip up on the dashboard to get ready to cut as well as edit the footage. When i put the Mp3(Song) on the dashboard it automatically cuts to the length of the amount of video footage that is on the dashboard at that time. I have tried to lengthen the duration of the mp3 using the settings feature given on the audio clip, but it automatically jumps back to the duration of the amount of video clip. Ultimately I am trying to lengthen my duration, and have my mp3 the full length of the song to stay for the whole project, which gives me room and a real chance to work with my clips. I figure that it is something very conspicuous that I am missing. I'm sure it is just a minor issue, and would love if somebody could help assist me with this problem. Please, and thank you your time is much appreciated.

    Hey Matt,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re trying to add an audio track to your iMovie project but you’re running into an issue adjusting the length of the track. If you haven't already, try making audio waveforms visible in the Project browser as shown in the article linked below.
    iMovie '11: Set the beginning and end of a sound or music clip
    Using audio waveforms:
    With audio waveforms visible in the Project browser, you can modify aspects of all the sound elements in your project in the same window. This feature is especially useful if you have many changes to make to your project’s audio.
    These instructions apply to modifying the startpoints and endpoints of audio you’ve added to your project, or audio you’ve detached from video. These instructions don’t apply to modifying the audio recorded with, and still attached to, your video, or to modifying background music you’ve added.
    With your project open, click the Audio Waveform button below the Project browser.
    Waveforms for each of the sound elements in your project appear in green, blue, or purple bands below the video clips. Blue waveforms represent the sound that was recorded with your video. Green waveforms represent sounds and music you’ve added to your project. Purple waveforms represent voiceovers or audio that was detached from a video clip. Names appear in the top-left corner of each green or purple waveform to make it easy to identify them.
    Select the sound clip you want to trim by clicking its name at the top of its waveform; the clip becomes outlined in yellow.
    Move your pointer over either end of the clip so that it turns into a resize pointer (if the clip has a jagged edge, it means the clip is split onto two lines), and then do one or both of the following:
    To set where the sound clip starts playing, drag its left edge to the right or left.
    To set where the sound clip stops playing, drag its right edge to the right or left.
    Cheers.
    -Jason

  • Embed album art in mp3 -permanently

    Is there a way to permanently embed albumart into a mp3/music file. It seems to me that when you do this from iTunes its only as a reference in the library - not as part of the file itself. Is this correct. And is there a way to do this as a batch job (on 10 000 files)?
