Description

Since CoverGloobus didn't work correctly with Audacious 3, I reported this to the CoverGloobus devs [1]. They seem to have managed getting some things fixed for version 3 but they can't get any further because "Audacious is not exposing 'Position' and 'mpris:length' properties via org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interface" [1].
So it looks like those things are missing in the MPRIS implementation.

History

#1 Updated by John Lindgren over 11 years ago

mpris:length and Position are both exposed on my system (3.3 final):

~ qdbus org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.audacious /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player Metadata
mpris:artUrl: file:///tmp/audacious-temp-7MILIW
mpris:length: 245806000
mpris:trackid: /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2/CurrentTrack
xesam:album: What I Wanted To Say
xesam:artist: Marie Bellet
xesam:title: Your Own Little World
~ qdbus org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.audacious /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player Position

  • % Done changed from 0 to 100
  • Affects version 3.2.4 added
  • Affects version deleted (3.3-beta2)

From the CoverGloobus bug report, it looks like the devs have only tried 3.2.4. Audacious 3.3 has better MPRIS2 support, as mentioned in the release announcement [1]. Closing.

You're absolutely right! Sorry for the bother.
