Hi,
Found it! The files name had .mp3 at the end, the problem was being masked by
null objects (or whatever) being returned by eyed3.
Checked for null objects and then stripped off the .mp3 and its mostly working
now. I’ve got a few other eyed3 errors to do with null objects but I can sort
tho
Hi,
No, I’ve checked leading/trailing whitespace, it seems to be related to the
variables that are returned from eyed3 in this case, for instance, I added a
check for None:
myTitleName = myID3.tag.title
if myTitleName is None:
continue
Seems like it can return a null object (or none?).

Why not just have scripts that echo out the various sets of test
data you are interested in? That way, Popen would
always be your interface and you wouldn't have to
make two cases in the consumer script.
In other words, make program that outputs test
data just like your main data source program.

But I'd recommend using assertIn [1] if you're using unittest to check

May I point-out that the above may not be the best approach. Rather
than using screen-prints to report errors, another method is to
utilise "logging" to collect such data - so that there is always a
formal record (regardless of user behavior). During 'production' the

But are there Boolean operators in Python3.8 to test the data type, e.g.
is_floate(var)
is_string(var)
etc. ?
There is also a 'pythonic' answer (what is the 'Python way'?)

ChrisA,
Most awesome, thank you very much, I just couldn't find that in the docs.
Still learning!

Very late to the party, but I just encountered a very similar problem and found
a solution:
```
import collections
obj = {"foo": "bar"}
isinstance(obj.values(), collections.abc.ValuesView) # => True
```
Hope that helps someone out there :)

You can "fix" this with

Idiomatic Python code today no longer uses has_key.

That works for non-negative base-10 int
