I'm trying to retrieve some extended file attributes (mp3 files to be precise) listed in the "Details" tab, section "Media" with PowerShell.
There are additional attributes like bitrate
, genre
, album
, etc.
Sadly Get-ItemProperty -Path $pathtofile | Format-List
does not return those.
Get-ItemProperty -Path $pathtofile | Get-Member
does not list them either.
Strange enough, Get-ItemProperty
returns the same output as Get-ChildItem
.
I've tried different files (even non mp3s) and PowerShell does not list the "detail" attributes anywhere.
Where does windows store these? Also how can one list them?
Update 3; I found a better script that should do exactly what you want provided by the incredible "Hey! Scripting Guy" blog. They already built a function that lets you view all of the details of music/mp3 files.
