Provide Option to read unsynced lyrics using Metadata or ID3Tags
Currently I Am trying to read unsynced lyrics
Using the below code
override fun onTracksChanged(tracks: Tracks) {
//https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/922
//https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1305
tracks.groups.forEach { group ->
for (i in 0 until group.length) {
group.mediaTrackGroup.getFormat(i).metadata?.let { metadata ->
for (j in 0 until metadata.length()) {
metadata.get(j).let {
if (it is CommentFrame) {
println("${it.id} ${it.text}") // COMM <value>
}
if (it is BinaryFrame) {
Log.e(
"Metadata",
"id3 BinaryFrame key: " + it.id + " data: " + it.data.size
)
if ("USLT".equals(
it.id,
ignoreCase = true
)
) {
Log.e(
"Metadata",
"id3 UNSYNCEDLYRICS onTracksChanged: " + String(
it.data
)
)
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
This code is able to read synced Lyrics like below
How ever when we try to read unsynced Lyrics it is not able to read them like below
Proposed solution
It would be better if we are able to read it as metadata using
override fun onMediaMetadataChanged(mediaMetadata: MediaMetadata) {
super.onMediaMetadataChanged(mediaMetadata)
mediaMetadata.title?.let( { println(it) } )
}
Which provides various options like Title, composer , Artist , Album etc
Alternatives considered
there are options to use Third party alternativos like .
Or mp3agic
How ever they can be unreliable and an inbuilt solution will be helpful.
