Media player notification issue

[rechigo 364]

Android 16, oneUI 8, Emby for Android 3.5.12. Logs and screenshot of issue attached.

 

In the "live notification" that lets you control media playback from the notification drawer, the second field is always labeled undefined. Here is screenshot showing this specifically. (is "live notification" a samsung-specific term for an interactive notification?)

Known issue also reported: 

The lower line of info for the player apparently only shows text that follows a dash in the file name.  No dash = undefined. I believe this is a carryover from the code that takes out the title name of different versions and replaces only 1080P and 720P in the video media pull down on media pages.  The player, I suspect, is being handled by the same code and that results in this issue.

Star Wars (1977) - 1080P.mp4
Star Wars (1977) - 720P.mp4

Shows up as only 1080P and 720P in the video select pull down.  If you incoming live TV name had a dash in it, then undefined would be replaced by whatever comes after the dash.

This is a request for code review.  I think it was ignored as a bug last July in the previous post.  Nothing has been fixed.

HI, how does it look for audio playback?

For audio, at least audio books, the first line is the book title, the second line is the author.

TV episodes also work fine, with the first like being the season/episode/title, and the second line being the show name.

 

It seems movies is the only one with "undefined" for the second line

Hi, are you still able to reproduce this?
