Mp3 ID3 info in Nautilus properties window

Question

In Nautilus, we have dedicated tabs for images, pdf files, etc. However, there is no such tabs for mp3 ID3 information.

Is it possible to add this tab? If a plugin is needed, which plugin does provide this functionality?

Answer 1

There's something called MediaInfo which does this. Here's a link to the website:

https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo

To install MediaInfo, enter the terminal and paste in the following commands:

sudo apt-get install mediainfo

nautilus -q && nautilus & (this restarts nautilus).

Now you should have a tab in the properties of audio files which looks like this:

Answer 2

You have to install totem or gnome-mplayer. Both provide a nautilus plugin that brings this info on the properties window in nautilus.
