Android : JAudioTagger doesn't change the tags

Question

So I am trying to edit the tags of music files in my app. This is the code

TagOptionSingleton.getInstance().setAndroid(true);
AudioFile f = AudioFileIO.read(sel);
Tag tag = f.getTag();
tag.setField(FieldKey.TITLE, "ABC");
f.commit();

I have tried AudioFileIO.write(f) instead of f.commit() but the changes that I make are not reflected in the files. They still have the same old data.

I have tried a number of versions of JAudioTagger but no luck. Can someone please help me. Thanks in advance !!

Answer 1

I know it is a bit late but the following works for me (I use the same framework for the other tags

     public String getmp3TrackTitleTag(File SourceFile)
        throws Exception {
    String TrackTitle = null;
    try {
        MP3File musicFile = (MP3File) AudioFileIO.read(SourceFile);
        if (musicFile != null && musicFile.hasID3v2Tag()) {
            ID3v24Tag id3v24 = (ID3v24Tag) musicFile.getID3v2TagAsv24();
            TrackTitle = id3v24.getFirst(ID3v24Frames.FRAME_ID_TITLE);
        }
    } catch (CannotReadException | IOException | TagException
            | ReadOnlyFileException | InvalidAudioFrameException e5) {
        throw e5;
    }
    return TrackTitle;
}

and to set the title

      public String setmp3TrackTitleTag(File SourceFile, String strTrackTitle)
        throws Exception {
    String error = null;
    AbstractID3v2Tag v2tag = null;

    try {
        MP3File musicFile = (MP3File) AudioFileIO.read(SourceFile);
        if (musicFile != null && musicFile.hasID3v2Tag()) {
            v2tag = musicFile.getID3v2Tag();
            try {
                v2tag.setField(FieldKey.TITLE, strTrackTitle);
                musicFile.setTag(v2tag);
                musicFile.commit();
            } catch (KeyNotFoundException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                error = e.getMessage();
            } catch (FieldDataInvalidException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                error = e.getMessage();
            } catch (CannotWriteException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                error = e.getMessage();
            }
        }
    } catch (CannotReadException | IOException | TagException
            | ReadOnlyFileException | InvalidAudioFrameException e5) {

        throw e5;
    }
    return error;
}
