Wishing to sort Music Collection by Sample Rate

[Jarvis]

Hello,

I'm a new user and I unable to solve a couple issue.

1.) I added "Sample Rate and Bit Depth" yet the fields are empty when accessing a folder?

2.) I wish sort the entire library collection folder by sample rate including sub folders and list the results by "Sample Rate".

Thanks

They are empty because your OS doesn't deliver information about these values for this file type. Can you upload a .zip with one of the .aiff files?

For .aiff sample rate and bit depth to be shown I added two scripted custom columns:

Code: Select all

return substr(runret("""C:\Program Files\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe"" --Inform=Audio;%SamplingRate% ""<cc_item>"""), 0, -1); 
return substr(runret("""C:\Program Files\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe"" --Inform=Audio;%BitDepth% ""<cc_item>"""), 0, -1);

MediaInfo_CLI must be installed for this.

Yeah, there seems to be no other way than using mediainfo. Even the K-Lite codec pack (which has codecs for .aiff) doesn't add support for being able to use any of your current columns.

Your substr doesn't do what it should do. It just strips off one char of <crlf>, not both.
So either use

Code: Select all

return substr(runret("""C:\Program Files\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe"" --Inform=Audio;%SamplingRate% ""<cc_item>"""), 0, -2); 
return substr(runret("""C:\Program Files\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe"" --Inform=Audio;%BitDepth% ""<cc_item>"""), 0, -2);

or

Code: Select all

return trim(runret("""C:\Program Files\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe"" --Inform=Audio;%SamplingRate% ""<cc_item>"""), <crlf>, "R");
return trim(runret("""C:\Program Files\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe"" --Inform=Audio;%BitDepth% ""<cc_item>"""), <crlf>, "R");

Though it worked as it was, "unvisible garbage" was accumulated. Thank you for the advice.
