Hi,

I don't know much about the existing tag libraries, if you find a
library which can extract a tag from a buffer in memory, you can use
gnome_vfs_read to get your file id3 tag in a buffer and then hand that
to your id3 library. Another possibility would be to have a look at how
rhythmbox does that (probably through gstreamer).
