Hi everyone, I would like to know how I can get the data of a song (title, artist etc .. + image (thumb)) using the latest code options today, something that works on both B4A, B4i and B4J (B4X).

I found some old classes in the forum but are slow, limited or not fully functional, unfortunately I found nothing current and that worked in B4X completely.

i found this example from @Erel in 2011
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/how-to-read-mp3-id3-tag.11278/#post-63099
but he raised me doubts.

1 - Because it is an old post, I would like to know if today is safe to use this code above, if the above code will not crash in newer versions of android (example android 9)?

2 - Is it possible to get the image (thumb) of a song using this code or similar, if yes how?

To get the image of a music file do you use code similar to the code above or is it something totally different?

Thanks!
