onID3 (Sound.onID3 handler) -- Flash CS3

Invoked each time new ID3 data is available for an MP3 file that you load using Sound.attachSound() or Sound.loadSound(). This handler provides access to ID3 data without polling. If both ID3 1.0 and ID3 2.0 tags are present in a file, this handler is called twice.

Example

The following example displays the ID3 properties of song1.mp3 to an instance of the DataGrid component. Add a DataGrid with the instance name id3_dg to your document, and add the following ActionScript to your FLA or AS file:

import mx.controls.gridclasses.DataGridColumn;
var id3_dg:mx.controls.DataGrid;
id3_dg.move(0, 0);
id3_dg.setSize(Stage.width, Stage.height);
var property_dgc:DataGridColumn = id3_dg.addColumn(new DataGridColumn("property"));
property_dgc.width = 100;
property_dgc.headerText = "ID3 Property";
var value_dgc:DataGridColumn = id3_dg.addColumn(new DataGridColumn("value"));
value_dgc.width = id3_dg._width-property_dgc.width;
value_dgc.headerText = "ID3 Value";

var my_sound:Sound = new Sound();
my_sound.onID3 = function() {
trace("onID3 called at "+getTimer()+" ms.");
for (var prop in this.id3) {
id3_dg.addItem({property:prop, value:this.id3[prop]});
}
};
my_sound.loadSound("song1.mp3", true);
