Expose FLAC VORBIS_COMMENT block in metadata

[nlgtuankiet]

Is there a way to pull out .flac file metadata (title, album name...)? I tried the EventLogger in the sample app, It work for .mp3 .m4a but not for .flac. I believe the default FlacExtractor already enable peekId3Data.
Not sure this feature is implemented or not.

If it's stored as ID3 data at the start of the file and isn't disabled via FLAG_DISABLE_ID3_METADATA this should work. If you provide the media you're trying to play we'll take a look (see the issue template).

Sure, I have tried to retrieve the title with MediaMetadataRetriever, it works, so it definitely in there, I just don't know the proper way to get it

This stream does not have an ID3 prefix, but after the STREAMINFO block at the start there is a PICTURE block and a VORBIS_COMMENT block. The latter has a title and artist, but I don't think we're parsing it at the moment. (It looks like we only handle STREAMINFO and SEEKTABLE in our libflac wrapper.)

I will mark this as a enhancement to store the vorbis comment payload in the metadata but it's low priority for now. I think we'd also be happy to accept a pull request for this.

@ojw28
I'd like to solve this, if there is no ongoing work on this currently.

This is being worked on already, I think by @vavadhani or one of his colleagues. We expect support to be added soon.

Alright, then I will search for something else :)
