can't get comment field values...

[Maiky-R]

for the first, accept my thank for your lib! it's the best

only one thing is upsetting..
maybe I do something wrong, but my program can't get info from comment fields

it returns empty line
so that I need to use another lib (TinyTag) and it's not really professional

I compared tag mapping for comment and it matched

I tested on the same files
and TinyTag lib gets comment value, music_tag doesn't

please, can you help with that.... ?

here is the link for 5 files (as an example)

please, check them for confirm the problem....

TinyTag have "COMM" and "COM" tag mapping for comment field
I added "COM" to strings in ID3.py
'comment': TAG_MAP_ENTRY(getter=('COMM', 'COM'), setter='COMM', type=str),
for TAG_MAP_ID3_2_4 and TAG_MAP_ID3_2_3

but it changes nothing (

when I insert values into comment field, as a result I see something like that
BXD0G2100001; Sony Music Entertainment

before ; = old value (that I can't get using music_tag lib)
after ; = new value that I just inserted (using music_tag lib)

I mean I can't rewrite this field totally
remains the old value, that likely stores somewhere in frames..
and I don't understand how to catch old value and rewrite it (using music_tag)

Unfortunately, I still don't have a good handle on ID3 tags since so many apps encode data into them differently. I think the best thing I can recommend is for you to take a look at file.mfile.tags.keys() and file.mfile.tags.getall('COMM'), etc. If you can think of a more natural way to work with tags from your audio app or music source, I'm happy to discuss changing the interface to mp3 / ID3 files.

it's a strange thing
now I've tested what you've suggested
and after that your lib started to return me normal value fo comment field

but it's still can't rewrite the whole filed with new value
result is: test; USUM72116311
where "test" what I've just inserted

kind of solution:
to add into id3.py
'comment2': TAG_MAP_ENTRY(getter='TXXX', setter='TXXX', type=str),

and use it when basic common request 'COMM' returns empty string

get the value using: 'TXXX',
then rewrite 'TXXX' with empty string
and then write new value to basic comment field 'COMM'
