Did somebody manage to use Android with www.jthink.net/jaudiotagger? According to http://dev.orf.at/trac/jala/wiki/Mp3LibraryEvaluation, the jaudiotagger library is quite a bit more up-to-date than the one at http://www.vdheide.de/projects.html. However, I experienced some problems. Namely, I got an extra (nonsense) character in front of the a tag field, and the last character of the tag is missing. For example,

tag.getFirstArtist()

returns "♥Billy Joe" instead of "Billy Joel".

I do only experience these problems in Android. In a "normal" Java program, above command returns the expected "Billy Joel" on the same file. Did somebody experience the same problems, and/or know what the reason for this behavior might be?

Thanks,

Michael

Cool, thanks.

I also found a smaller library by Jens Vonderheide
(http://www.vdheide.de/projects.html) which I managed to use successfully in Android.
