TagsEditor.MP4_PictureFrameAddFromBitmap method

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Remarks

 

Adds to the MP4 tag a new picture frame taken from a memory bitmap.

The modification only happens in memory and not directly into the original sound file: in order to store modifications inside the file you need to call the TagsEditor.MP4_SaveChanges method.

 

For further details about methods related to tags editing refer to the TagsEditorMan class.

For details about the editing of tags see the How to edit tag info in sound files tutorial.
