Hello,
We've a music app reading MPMediaItem.
We got items using MPMediaQuery. But we realized that some downloaded tracks from Apple Music were fetched too. Not all downloaded track but only those who were played recently.
Of course, since these tracks are protected with DRM we can't play them in our player.
It's weird to get them in our query because we added predicate in order to dont fetch protected asset and iCloud item
MPMediaPropertyPredicate(value: false, forProperty: MPMediaItemPropertyHasProtectedAsset)
MPMediaPropertyPredicate(value: false, forProperty: MPMediaItemPropertyIsCloudItem)
To be sure, we made a second check on each item we've fetched
extension MPMediaItem {
public func isValid() -> Bool {
return self.assetURL != nil && !self.isCloudItem && !self.hasProtectedAsset
}
}
But we still get these items. Their hasProtectedAsset
attribute always return false.
I dont know if it's a bug, but since we can't detect this items as Apple Music downloaded track, we can't either:
- filter them to not add them in our application library
OR
- switch on a
MPMusicPlayerController.applicationMusicPlayer
to allow the user to play them
