Quick Start

using TagLibSharp2.Mpeg;
using TagLibSharp2.Xiph;

// Read MP3 tags
var result = Mp3File.ReadFromFile("song.mp3");
if (result.IsSuccess)
{
    var mp3 = result.File!;
    Console.WriteLine($"{mp3.Title} by {mp3.Artist}");
    Console.WriteLine($"Duration: {mp3.Duration}");

    // Modify tags
    mp3.Title = "New Title";
    mp3.Artist = "New Artist";
    mp3.SaveToFile("song.mp3", File.ReadAllBytes("song.mp3"));
}

// Read FLAC tags
var flacResult = FlacFile.ReadFromFile("song.flac");
if (flacResult.IsSuccess)
{
    var flac = flacResult.File!;
    Console.WriteLine($"{flac.Title} - {flac.Properties.Duration}");
}

// Async support
var asyncResult = await Mp3File.ReadFromFileAsync("song.mp3");

Supported Metadata

  • Basic: Title, Artist, Album, Year, Genre, Track, Comment
  • Extended: AlbumArtist, Composer, DiscNumber, BPM, Conductor, Copyright
  • Pictures: Album art with multiple picture types (front, back, etc.)

  • Lyrics: Multi-language synchronized and unsynchronized lyrics

Error Handling

TagLibSharp2 uses result types instead of exceptions:

var result = Mp3File.ReadFromFile("song.mp3");
if (result.IsSuccess)
{
    // Use result.File
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Error: {result.Error}");
}
