mp3 audio encoding/decoding
Editor's Note: This file was a File Exchange Pick of the Week
Includes 2 functions to write and read MP3 files. It works like the commands WAVWRITE and WAVREAD.
1.- Just unpack in the toolbox folder under the MATLAB directory.
2.- Set the MATLAB search path to include that folder.
This version was made in MATLAB for WINDOWS only.

I have a problem The following dos command
dos(cmd):
with
cmd=C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2015b\toolbox\mp3_toolbox_v2.0\mp3_toolbox\mp3write\lame --quiet -b 128 C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2015b\toolbox\mp3_toolbox_v2.0\mp3_toolbox\mp3write\temp.wav C:\Users\dibin\Desktop\test_mp3.mp3
is not functionnal in my case.
An dos error appear :
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
The "space" between Program and files in the path seems to bring trouble...
Can you help me?
Must I copy the lame function in another folder not under "program files"?
Thank you
Philippe

I've run it successfully, thank u.
But I wonder what's the difference between mp3read (better accuracy?)and wavread?

For those who are confused about the Line 67/ line 50 errors, I think I've found the answer. Presumably you all are not using Windows - which becomes an issue when the mp3read function attempts to access mpg123.exe (as well as lame.exe and others). Exe files are not executable by macs or linux... hence the problem. The reason wavread can't open the file is because there's nothing in it. It's still the temporary wav file that tempfile was initialized with.
Fortunately, there are mpg123 and lame files that have been made for mac and linux. You can find them here: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/13852-mp3read-and-mp3write/all_files. Put the .mac or linux files in your directory and you should be fine.
Then just substitute this code in for line 42 (if you're a mac user):
[stat,raw_info] = dos(['"' location,'/mpg123.mac"', ' -w ', tmpfile, ' ', '"',FILE,'"']);
Hope this works for ya'll.

Hi,
I am trying to read an mp3 file using the mp3read function. And I am always getting this error :
Error using wavread (line 67)
Invalid Wave File. Reason: Cannot open file.
Error in mp3read (line 50)
[Y,FS,NBITS] = wavread(tmpfile); % Load the
data and delete temporary file
Anybody knows any solution for this? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

To anyone getting the error "??? Error using ==> wavread at 67
Cannot open file.", I was getting the same, but once I moved all of the mpg123, mp3info, and lame files to the same folder as the program that was running them, it worked perfectly.

change line 42 in mp3read to
[stat,raw_info] = dos(['"' location,'\mpg123.exe"', ' -w ', tmpfile, ' ', '"',FILE,'"']);

This code is very good,but i can't run it. Everytime i try to run, Matlab always notifies:
??? Error using ==> wavread at 67
Cannot open file.
??? Error in ==> mp3read at 49
[Y,FS,NBITS] = wavread(tmpfile); % Load the data and delete
temporary file
So please show me what's the problem?
Arjen vd Kamp (view profile)
If you have the error in line 48 of the mp3read then there probably is a space in the directory were you put the mp3read.m. For instance between Program and Files. Just put it in a folder without spaces and try again...

Please fix the pathname issue that John Hughes mentioned earlier. His fix works so you will just need to upload a new file

Can the MP3READ function be used to detect the frequency, tempo and rhythm of an mp3 file? Where are these values stored for retreval and comparison in the future?
i want another idea on voice project
i want to make a reaserch in sound
plssssssssssss
i am the student of electrical engineering at uet peshawar
information
I'm working in watermarking, but I don't understand clearly. So, I need some examples or Matlab code to simulate. Please help me
Very good. In mp3read.m the output variable "out" is unnecessary, probably introduced for debugging.
A MEX version of this program would give it a perfect score. Very useful for playing around with sound files.
remove your site & code from google
your code is pathetic
Fix for lines 54-70 of mp3write.m:
This allows one to use pathnames with spaces in them.
Note that the who thing fails if you give an ABSOLUTE pathname (like "C:/Matlab-stuff/mySong.mp3"), because the read/write routines expect only relative pathnames. I haven't tried to fix this part.
tmpfile = ['"', strcat(lame,'\temp.wav'), '"'];
MP3FILE = ['"', strcat(pwd,'\',MP3FILE), '"'];
ENCODING = num2str(ENCODING);
switch ENCODING
case {'1'}
cmd = ['"', lame,'\lame', '"', ' --quiet', ' ', tmpfile, ' ',MP3FILE];
case {'2'}
cmd = ['"',lame,'\lame', '"', ' --quiet', ' -b 128 ', tmpfile, ' ',MP3FILE];
case {'3'}
cmd = ['"',lame,'\lame', '"', ' --quiet', ' --abr 112 ', tmpfile, ' ',MP3FILE];
case {'4'}
cmd = ['"',lame,'\lame', '"', ' --quiet', ' -f ', tmpfile, ' ',MP3FILE];
case {'5'}
cmd = ['"',lame,'\lame', '"',' --quiet', ' -h ', ' -V ', tmpfile, ' ',MP3FILE];
otherwise
error('Encoding parameters not suported')
end
Suggested code mod for the reader:
Line 42:
[stat,raw_info] = dos(['"',location,'\mpg123','"', ' -w ', tmpfile, ' ', '"',FILE,'"'])
By putting double-quotes around the pathname to mpg123, I've fixed the "can't handle blanks in the path" problem. Presumably a similar fix is needed for mp3write; I'll send it when/if I get there...
It seems the search path needs to be w/o blanks for it to work. Also there was one row in mp3write changing the path to a name which didn't work out (row 55: MP3FILE = strcat(pwd,'\',MP3FILE)).
Otherwise, great job.
2 columns = stero sound? Haven't tried the toolbox, just guessing!+
very very good
Why does it output 2 columns? Is one column the time index and the other is the amplitude?
Great bit of code! Now I can analyse mp3's in matlab.
when i use mp3write ,it say mp3buffer is not too big enough
very good
very good
It's a very good rutine
Good aplication. I need more time to evaluation and qualify to.
Thanks Alfredo for nice job!
I cannot open the .zip file, so low marks for the packaging. No comments on the contents

Does exactly what it says on the tin! A very useful complement to wavread and wavwrite.
nice!
Works for me - ACE
for me , its fantastic.
