1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

Is there any tool out there that can take two MP3 files, and compare the audio portion of it (only) to determine whether it's the same content or not? That is, if you have the same file that has been copied and then had its ID3 tags or embedded images modified - is there something that could tell me they are still, essentially, "the same"...?
Anything using hashes on the file as a whole is obviously not a contender.
(Way) more complex scenario: How about comparing two files, but also ignoring the encoding bit rate? That is, if it's the same track, but one's been encoded at 128kbps vs another at 320kbps - then I'd want to get rid of the lower-bitrate version...I believe something like MusicBrainz could do that sort of thing - as I understand it, it "listens" to the audio regardless of encoding and tries to identify what it is...but it's not exactly suited for my purposes (comparing files in bulk). But I have to think because this exists, it is technically possible...so what could be used automate this and organize the results in a way that makes sense?

You might like this if you have some mp3's on your PC you like to play (or like to play along with).
It's an MS sample app for UWP Audio Creation. You can just run it from VS.
The first example lets you load a sound file and alter the speed; faster or slower.
Listened to Clapton's Crossroads at .7; a totally new listening experience.

Wait, no. No audio processor can go that low.

I strongly recommend you change your username - it makes you look like a spammer!

That or Singapore Car Plates's parents were just mean.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

I haven’t received a Daily News newsletter email since last Friday. I just took a look at my subscriptions and didn’t see it listed. Did CodeProject discontinue it? I looked forward to reading it every morning.

Oh ! I awarded him that ages ago - at least he has an excuse living in a different time zone - mine was unadulterated ineptitude
