Doesn't show artist or album name on Apple Music #10

Closed Hafumoto closed 1 month ago

Hafumoto commented 1 year ago

I constantly get "N/A" on everything from Apple Music on artist names and album names.

keifufu commented 1 year ago

If on Firefox, make sure the extension has permission on the page. And just to make sure, you are using the web page right?

Hafumoto commented 1 year ago

I was running the Windows Preview app. Tried it in the browser, but it didn't work at all. Allowed it to run in private windows and then it worked, showing all info.

Will it be fixed for the app as well as some point, seeing as it shows some info from the app, but not all?

Desktop players are only supported if they can report their media info to Windows, eg: show up in the volume flyout or media control center. If apple music does not have this built-in, you'll have to hope they add it (since it's apple I doubt it though).

It does though. I just tested it, and the entire info show up in the action center.

In that case, just make sure you're on plugin version 2.0.1 or newer

keifufu commented 1 year ago

@Hafumoto please report back if it works with 2.0.1 and newer, thank you.

Hafumoto commented 1 year ago

I'm on browser plugin 2.0.4 (Firefox) and Rainmeter 2.0.5.

keifufu commented 1 year ago

Unless you disabled "use native apis" in the extension settings, rm2.0.5 should pick up everything from the action center.

Hafumoto commented 1 year ago

Without "Use native APIs", I'm not getting any info. I have no idea why it only picks up song title and album art.

keifufu commented 5 months ago

this is likely to be fixed in the next update

Using the latest release 2.0.7 and chrome browser extension. From desktop Apple Music app, on Windows 10, i'm not seeing artist or album name either.

The info is available when using the built-in media keys in Windows 10 for prev/next/play/pause:

keifufu commented 3 months ago

still fixed in next update (there has not been one yet, no clue when I'll get around to it)

keifufu commented 1 month ago

Should be fixed in a pre-release now. I do not recommend using it until it becomes stable though.
