Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.From the issue "getid3 missing" at http://drupal.org/node/331351, it seems that for the Audio module to properly use the "getID3" package one also needs to install the Drupal "getID3" module.
The attached patch adds instructions to the Audio "install.txt" file to reflect this.
(The patch also fixes a typo--"automatically," not "automagically." It changes some British-style single quotes to American-style double quotes. And it shifts a few line-endings, for no great reason.)
My apologies if I've done anything wrong.
Cordially,
O Govinda

PS: For some reason, I get an error message saying I can only upload files with the extensions jpg jpeg gif png. So I've added the "png" extension. Strip it off and you have the patch.

seanrThis needs to be done in the 5.x branch as well. There's no documentation of the new dependency on the module's homepage either - it still refers to just the library on Sourceforge. The only way anyone would figure this out is searching the closed issues for getid3 (as I did).
