id3_remove_tag — Remove an existing ID3 tag
id3_remove_tag() is used to remove the information stored of an ID3 tag.
The path to the MP3 file
Instead of a filename you may also pass a valid stream resource
Allows you to specify the version of the tag as MP3 files may contain both, version 1.x and version 2.x tags.
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Example #1 id3_remove_tag() example
<?php
$result = id3_remove_tag( "path/to/example.mp3", ID3_V1_0 );
if ($result === true) {
echo "Tag succesfully removed\n";
}
?>
If the file is writable and contained a 1.0 tag, this will output:
Tag succesfully removed
Note: Currently id3_remove_tag() only supports version 1.0 and 1.1. If you choose to remove a 1.0 tag and the file contains a 1.1 tag, this tag will be removed, as v1.1 is only an extension of 1.0.
