id3 read

[drpark]

Hi,
it would be great to add id3 reading support (useful for live stream for example)

thank you

[aljibbs]

Any feedback on this yet ?

[ryanheise]

No update, sorry. Although it would be a useful feature to have, it's not the highest on my own priority list. Although pull requests would definitely be welcome if someone is willing to contribute in this area.

Any feedback on this yet? Or maybe can I read bytes or stream file from just_audio and parse tags?

[ryanheise]

I think the easiest approach is to clone the just_audio git repository and the necessary code. Unfortunately I can't do this as soon as you might like, although pull requests are welcome. If you search online for id3+avplayer or id3+exoplayer you will find the necessary code for the iOS and Android platforms.

There's this https://pub.dev/packages/audiotagger

Hi @ryanheise, can you expose this ExoPlayer api:

Retrieving metadata: Without playback

Here:

just_audio/just_audio/android/src/main/java/com/ryanheise/just_audio/AudioPlayer.java

Lines 222 to 241 in 097e04d

	@Override
	public void onTracksChanged(Tracks tracks) {
	for (int i = 0; i < tracks.getGroups().size(); i++) {
	TrackGroup trackGroup = tracks.getGroups().get(i).getMediaTrackGroup();
	for (int j = 0; j < trackGroup.length; j++) {
	Metadata metadata = trackGroup.getFormat(j).metadata;
	if (metadata != null) {
	for (int k = 0; k < metadata.length(); k++) {
	final Metadata.Entry entry = metadata.get(k);
	if (entry instanceof IcyHeaders) {
	icyHeaders = (IcyHeaders) entry;
	broadcastImmediatePlaybackEvent();
	}
	}
	}
	}
	}
	}

ExoPlayer also parses id3 metadata, but the event is not sent to flutter app in that case.
I think, it would be good idea to add the event for id3 headers also.
