Now Playing info not consistent with Roon app(s)

Open CatalinMustata opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

I've noticed the info I get in the now_playing field is not consistent with the info displayed in the Roon App. Namely, I observed the data returned contains the band and every composer mentioned in the credits. However, if I look at the app it only lists performers.

Concrete example. I was playing Confessions, Pt. 2 by BadBadNotGood and the Roon App displayed it as being played by BadBadNotGood, Colit Stetson. The data I received through the API had more information, but no succint version as the Roon app has.

{
  "seek_position":130,
  "length":384,
  "one_line":{"line1":"Confessions, Pt. 2 - BadBadNotGood / Colin Stetson / Alexander Sowinski / Leland Whitty / Chester Hansen / Matthew Tavares"},
  "two_line":{"line1":"Confessions, Pt. 2","line2":"BadBadNotGood / Colin Stetson / Alexander Sowinski / Leland Whitty / Chester Hansen / Matthew Tavares"},
  "three_line":{"line1":"Confessions, Pt. 2","line2":"BadBadNotGood / Colin Stetson / Alexander Sowinski / Leland Whitty / Chester Hansen / Matthew Tavares","line3":"IV"
}

Is there any way to get a more succint version of this data?
