Metadata ignores all but last key #332

Open emperor06 opened 1 month ago

Player Lollypop on Arch Linux

The documentation suggests metadata can take multiple keys (metadata [KEY...]) but when passing multiple keys, only the last one is displayed.

Example: $ playerctl metadata artist MyBand

$ playerctl metadata title MySong

$ playerctl metadata artist title MySong

I think I've found where the problem is. I've made a naive attempt at fixing it that works for me, but I'm really not familiar with glib and low-level string memory things so it may very well segfault or memleak. Here's the attempt, just in case: https://github.com/emperor06/playerctl/commit/c3700b05f769f4150e19609a3e78e306accfebc0
