typedef struct _WMSynchronisedLyrics{
BYTE bTimeStampFormat; '(1 or 2 - depending on TimeStamp
format used)
BYTE bContentType; '(0-8 - ContentType dependant)
LPWSTR pwszContentDescriptor; '(Pointer to a wide-character
null-terminated string containing data from the encoding application;
app-dependant(?))
DWORD dwLyricsLen; '(length of the lyrics data in bytes)
BYTE* pbLyrics; '(Pointer to a BYTE array
containing the lyrics)
} WM_SYNCHRONISED_LYRICS;
, while dataArray, returned by GetAttributeByIndexEx, contains this (by zero
based position in array):
0(1-st byte) - bTimeStampFormat (2 in my case, meaning absolute time of the
lyric in milliseconds)
1(2-nd byte) - bContentType (1 in my case, meaning song lyrics)
2(3-6 bytes) - dword, with unknown meaning, let's name it dwA
6(7-10 bytes) - dword, corresponding to dwLyricsLen
10(11-14 bytes) - dword, with unknown meaning, let's name it dwB
14 - wide-character null-terminated string, containing description of
Synched lyrics attribute,
and after it goes pbLyrics-BYTE array containing the lyrics data (timestamps
& their strings) itself.
The most interesting thing is that dwords dwA and dwB are getting new,
absolutely random at first sight values on every GetAttributeByIndexEx call
on the same mp3 file!
I say 'at first sight' because it's not absolutely true: difference dwB-dwA
always remains the same for a file (but may differ for various files)!
It would be only interesting, if I only wanted to read synched lyrics - I
can simply ignore those dwA & dwB; and I do so, reading
WM/Lyrics_Synchronised.
But when you decide to update this attribute, you'll see, that you can't
ignore them, leaving zeroed or even filling with some values according this
strange 'constant difference' rule!
That's why I ask for your help. Of course, it would be ideal to see some VB
code sample for updating (IWMHeaderInfo3.ModifyAttribute), but I thank in
advance for any ideas in vb.net or c#:)
Here is the same mismatch for WM/Picture for example:
description in WMFSDK:
typedef struct _WMPicture{
LPWSTR pwszMIMEType;
BYTE bPictureType;
LPWSTR pwszDescription;
DWORD dwDataLen;
BYTE* pbData;
} WM_PICTURE;
structure, returned by GetAttributeByIndexEx:
0: - dword with unknown meaning
4: - bPictureType (Picture type (author, album cover, group etc.) )
5: - dword with unknown meaning
9: - dwDataLen 'Picture size
13: -dword with unknown meaning
17: -pwszMIMEType (wide-character null-terminated string, usualy
"image/jpeg" in my case)
then goes pwszDescription,
then goes pbData
So, please, all guru, - help me to find a vb.net solution for WM attributes
update!
tia,
Vincas Stepankevicius
P.S.
One idea came into my head while writing these notes - most likely those
'mystic' dwords means nothing else but addresses of pointers to data?
Nonetheless I don't know what can I do with such 'knowledge', - so you
remain my last hope :)
Code to this group please, Vincas being the judge of the result.

They are pointers and the difference is a constant because the data is
always laid out in th same way. You can access the data they point to using
methods in System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal like PtrToStringUni(),
PtrToStructure(), ReadByte(), ReadInt16()... I think there may be a more
elegant solution, but this should do.

Of course, you can use the inverse methods to write new data and get
pointers to your own structs and strings.
It is also useful to know that the Lyrics fields are derived from the MP3
definitions for such things which are documented in in various places.
I haven't looked at them in detail so the following may be wrong.
It *may* be that in practive the pointers are effectively offsets into the
datablock so if you tread them as longs and see what is at point it may be
pertinent.

I don't think so. The data block where the pointers are embedded is
marshalled as an unstructured byte array so they are not interpreted and
hence must retain their valued in unmanaged code, where they are actual
pointers and not offsets.

Both methods do not use any specific structure so I'll assume you mean the
structure relative to a specific attribute type, for example
WM_SYNCHRONISED_LYRICS, in which case the structure is exactly the same for
both methods, no difference. Or maybe you meant that the buffer you get
filled by GetAttributeByIndexEx() doesn't look like a WM_SYNCHRONISED_LYRICS
structure? Since I do not have any file that contains such an attribute, I
can not investigate it (do you have a sample you can share?).

Yeah, but are you saying that the the WMFSDK knows enough to fix up these
pointers as it loads the header metadata block into memory?
It would seem a remarkably clever thing to get it to do.
Mind you if you actually have tried this then I'll shut up, since I have
not. I found out just enough to reckon it wasn't worth my while! A little
knowledge and all that!
Iain
I agree, that *internal* structure is the same for both methods, but as you
can see from declaration of WMFSDKWrapper.dll method GetAttributeByIndexEx
inVB:
--
Public Overridable Function GetAttributeByIndexEx(ByVal wStreamNum As
System.UInt16,
ByVal wIndex As System.UInt16, ByVal pwszName As String, ByRef pwNameLen
As System.UInt16,
ByRef pType As WMFSDKWrapper.WMT_ATTR_DATATYPE, ByRef pwLangIndex As
System.UInt16, ByVal pValue() As Byte,
ByRef pdwDataLength As System.UInt32) As System.UInt32
--
, this method returns attribute data as as byte array pValue, and I must
decide myself what structure has data in it, depending on attr name &
type...
>Since I do not have any file that contains such an attribute, I
> can not investigate it (do you have a sample you can share?).
Of cource I have, but I don't know if this group is a proper place for
messages with audio files attached :)
If You have Windows Media player (ver 9 or 10), you can simply create such
attributes on any mp3 or wma file you have.
If not - let me know, and I'll try to make a mp3 or wma file as little as
possible, with required attributes set.
If I got it right, I can use your spelled e-mail for sending such file.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Vincas
The English was fine, it was the technical content that baffled me.
It's probably a very interesting question, I just have no idea what
the answer will be !
Hopefully, Alessandro has a few clues he can offer.
Kind regards - Neil
Alessandro is positively right: they are *not* offsets in datablock for one
simple reason: their values are just too big for that :)
Vincas
As to the conversion of the sdk C# sample structures to VB.net a starter can
be had from http://www.smithvoice.com/downs/svmedia.zip
For a quick look at what that does without a download, just click on
http://www.smithvoice.com/wmediaattrib.htm
This does the simple types (Strings, Bools, Ints) and the question, as I
understand it, is how to use Set or Add/Modify on the binary types.
-smith
There is absolutely no difference, which attr you'll examine. Having
clearness with pic, you'll be done with slyr too and vice versa.
After visiting your site site thought that it would be nice to show you a
screenshot of my app I've told you about.
Unfortunately, I haven't any public website to publish it for you, so if you
agree, I'll send it by e-mail.
What app's doing:
Attribute view/update (view - all attrs/update- all but those we are
talking about);
displays all embeded pics, lyrics, synched lyrics;
scrolls synched lyrics in a karaoke-style while playing;
plus has a very simple & handy lyrics synchronising interface (in
contrast to awkward WMP10 one)
So, the only thing I'm missing - binary attrs update (with simple ones, as
I've told, I had no problems).
That's why I'm here :)

Oh, yeah I see what you;re doing from the screenshots now. I had some
similar problems to do an 'Export to Excel' (which was only partly
tested) but I did it in javascript. It mostly falls down on the XML
processing, and really needs to go client side :
http://www.windowsmediatv.com/wmprocessor/medialibrarytoexcel.html
The problem is, AFAIK the Excel ("Office Web Components") you can put
into a web page, don't read *native* OfficeXML format files :-P
Anyway - cheers & good luck with this.

Great! I tested your sample - it works like a sharm (despite some minor, mp3
