Tika fails to parse some MP3 tags correctly and produces null characters in
value
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TIKA-887
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-887
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Bug
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Jens Hübel
Priority: Minor
I have a problem when extracting the comment tag from an MP3 file. It contains
an invalid prefix then a '\0' character and then the real value of the tag.
This happpens with files downloaded from www.jamendo.com, for example this one:
http://storage.newjamendo.com/download/track/450545/mp32/Swansong.mp3
It may be that the tags are not created properly on this site, but at least
tools like mp3tag display them correctly.
The extracted value looks like this: eng http://www.jamendo.com
Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0
At position 3 there is a null character. The tag value should start with http...
Here is the byte sequence at the beginning of this file:
