Hey, my friend! Finally, I got it!

I created a file list of all my mp3 and I search songs by regex %lines(#?~R%par1) to find the folder (path) of the song to get Mp3 tags with yours JavaFunctions to extract metadata. 😊

I know! I only read in this project about permition for run DUMPSYS. I hadn't do this. I didn't test your project.

Sure! No problems. By the way, I was looking for on google and I found your project - Current App Activity v1.3.

I gave DUMP permission for Tasker, as necessary, but media.player and media_session don't return path (Android 9 Xiaomi). On my last Samsung phone, media.player returned file path...

Mmm, I think you are confussing projects here.

Current App Activity does not return you anything related to the music. It's to get app, package, but mainly, activity class from current (foreground) app.

And about DUMP permssion, for that project, still not working?

Now I understood. Which method do you use to get file path of playing media? I can't use "dumpsys media.player" on my recent phone without root... My player is Poweramp. Thanks for your attention!

No problem ;)

I will try to build something to get the path, and also retrieve other things on demand. Give me some days...

PD: We use the same music player. It's awesome!

I have upvoted it, seems a very good action to be added. ;)

But meanwhile, you can try using a task I have created to get things like that, if you want:

Great! Thank you! But... How can I use it? An example, please! 

To retrieve info from a local file, you just need to tell Tasker where the file is. So edit the A1 ((Param (String)), accordingly to where you can have the file located on.

Then, run from A1-A3 + the action(s) below, depending on what type of info you wanna see.

After, that, you may know how to display the info (Flash, Notification, Global var, etc...)
