Display %initialkey%

Hi,
i browsed the forum a bit, but just found old posts.

Is it possible to Display the %initialkey% tag for mp3s now? i found this nice thread http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/lofive.../t75753.htmland it shows the Key tags... but i don't know how to do that. i dont wanna use APEv2 tags.

my first thread was deleted here, cause i bumped the old thread (the link above). But this thread and the bumped thread are about different topics, so please read before delete.. it's not crossposting.

According to http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?ti...ID3_Tag_Mapping no key-related frames are read, so you would have to use a custom (TXXX) frame. You did not specify how you fill the desired frame in the first place; should we assume it is by a different application using a dedicated frame? If so, you might be out of luck.

As tedious OP was kindly asked to provide solution to other users bumping here (presumably not such common a55hole5), but did not respond to it in a manner as author responded to his email question, I'm posting answer

This is the code for key coloring:

Code: [Select]
$puts(maj,$select($strstr(B;F#;D♭;A♭;E♭;B♭;F;C;G;D;A;E;,%key%;),7,,8,,,9,,,10,,,11,,,12,,,1,,2,,3,,4,,5,,6))
$puts(min,$select($strstr(A♭m;E♭m;B♭m;Fm;Cm;Gm;Dm;Am;Em;Bm;F#m;D♭m;,%key%;),7,,,,8,,,,9,,,,10,,,11,,,12,,,1,,,2,,,3,,,4,,,5,,,,6))

[%key% $hsl($sub(240,$mul($if2($get(maj),$get(min)),20)),$if($get(maj),240,180),$if($get(maj),120,90))∎]


It corresponds to KEY tag, unlike INITIALKEY - or TKAY frame which can't be read by foobar in case of MP3 file

Thanks for the script dingdong.

Not sure if this is the correct place to do this but can I put a request in to include the facility to natively read/write the TKEY / %initialkey% frame?

Although dingdong has given used a TXXX frame (%KEY%) to achieve this it would be great it foobar could support this frame.  At present the program I use to key tracks with, Mixed In Key, writes to the correct frame as does the DJ software Traktor Pro so its a real bummer that foobar does not.

Is there any chance of this feature being added to the core functionality at any stage or at the very least, enable it to be achieved by using the SDK?
