POiTunes COM - How to acess Lyrics
text
Body
copied!<p>I have been messing around with iTunes COM from python.</p> <p>However, I haven't been able to access the Lyrics of any track.</p> <p>I have been using python for this. Here is the code:</p> <pre><code>>>> import win32com.client >>> itunes = win32com.client.Dispatch("iTunes.Application") >>> lib = itunes.LibraryPlaylist >>> tracks = lib.Tracks >>> tracks <win32com.gen_py.iTunes 1.12 Type Library.IITTrackCollection instance at 0x16726176> >>> tracks[1] <win32com.gen_py.iTunes 1.12 Type Library.IITTrack instance at 0x16746256> >>> tracks[1].Lyrics Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in <module> File "D:\Programas\Python26\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py", line 462, in __getattr__ raise AttributeError("'%s' object has no attribute '%s'" % (repr(self), attr)) AttributeError: '<win32com.gen_py.iTunes 1.12 Type Library.IITTrack instance at 0x16780824>' object has no attribute 'Lyrics' </code></pre> <p>tracks[1] has no attribute 'Lyrics' because it is of type 'IITTrack'. Only 'IITFileOrCDTrack', which is a sub-type of 'IITTrack' has this attribute. My question is how to access the 'IITFileOrCDTrack's? Or how to convert a 'IITTrack' to a 'IITFileOrCDTrack'? </p> <p>Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.</p> <p>P.S: Info on how to download documentation of iTunes COM interface <a href="http://www.paraesthesia.com/archive/2009/05/20/itunes-com-for-windows-sdk-now-in-adc.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>.</p>
