This is a caching extension for getID3(). It works the exact same way as the getID3 class, but return cached information very fast

Example:

Normal getID3 usage (example):

require_once 'getid3/getid3.php'; $getID3 = new getID3; $getID3->encoding = 'UTF-8'; $info1 = $getID3->analyze('file1.flac'); $info2 = $getID3->analyze('file2.wv');

getID3_cached usage:

require_once 'getid3/getid3.php'; require_once 'getid3/getid3/extension.cache.dbm.php'; $getID3 = new getID3_cached('db3', '/tmp/getid3_cache.dbm', '/tmp/getid3_cache.lock'); $getID3->encoding = 'UTF-8'; $info1 = $getID3->analyze('file1.flac'); $info2 = $getID3->analyze('file2.wv');

Supported Cache Types

cache_type cache_options ------------------------------------------------------------------- mysql host, database, username, password
