getID3 replaces "gs://" with "gs:/" in Google Cloud Storage filenames leading file not found errors about getid3 HOT 5 CLOSED

Not a getID3 issue.

getID3 does not support remote files, whether over http:// or gs:// or your other favourite protocol. You'll have to manage your own wrapper functions to interact with the remote filesystem and let getID3 deal only with local files.

Yes, it is remote file, but due to PHP-builtin support it can be accessed with standard functions like fopen, fseek, fread, etc. So it is supported. We just need to fix a single function which validates path. It will be done in v 2.0

@iqbalansari , If you want to use v 1.9 - you'll have to modify souce code yourself.

I was just trying to get this to work a few weeks ago with a file wrapper and there are more things to change than just the path validation. Several functions (like is_file()) are used in getID3 that do not work with file wrappers.

@maknapp As far as Google Cloud Storage is concerned is_file is supported. I needed to set option_max_2gb_check to false, to prevent getID3 from trying to get file size using shell commands like ls (which are not supported on GAE), in this case I am absolutely sure the files I am processing would be far smaller than 2GB.

Except for the issue mentioned in OP I have been able to use getID3 on GAE without any issues. I hack around mentioned issue right now by passing gs:/// to getID3 instead of just gs://, of course this is just a hack, it would be great if this can be fixed in getID3 itself

@soulhunter1987 I do not mind switching to v2.0, I preferred v1.9 because there is no stable release for v2.0 on packagist. Thanks for looking into this.
