Getting Media file attributes in Windows 8 c#

Question

Is there a generic way to get the media attributes like artist information etc in Windows 8? Or at least in classic .net C# open source code? I am looking right now for Audio file attributes.

Answer 1

Yes, it seems to expose the Windows Property System. You can check these on MSDN:

• StorageFile.Properties property
• StorageItemContentProperties.GetMusicPropertiesAsync() method
• MusicProperties class
