ValueError: None needs to be str for key 'COMPOSER'

[BurkhalterY]

The composer field is set to null for the track 3 of this album : https://play.qobuz.com/album/0825646055173

I've checked this in the API : https://www.qobuz.com/api.json/0.2/album/get?album_id=0825646055173&app_id=<your app_id>

The error comes from line 132 of metadata.py :

try:
    audio["COMPOSER"] = d["composer"]["name"]  # COMPOSER
except KeyError:
    pass

PS. Sorry for my bad English 🙂

The error is only on the FLAC, not the MP3.

I also have this type of error.

And so the tmp files are not renamed and are erased.
