@mikael Thanks for your reply.
You are right. I was missing the brackets at "nowPlayingItem". I already had them for title, but you need both.

Hi

I am trying to get the currently played item from Apples Music App. My code looks like this:

from objc_util import *

def main():
    NSBundle.bundleWithPath_(
        '/System/Library/Frameworks/MediaPlayer.framework').load()

    MPMusicPlayerController = ObjCClass('MPMusicPlayerController')
    MPMediaItem = ObjCClass('MPMediaItem')
    player = MPMusicPlayerController.systemMusicPlayer()

    item = player.nowPlayingItem
    print(item)
    print(item.title)

main()

My problem is, that I do not know how to get values from "nowPlayingItem". I get this exception:

print(item.title)
AttributeError: 'ObjCInstanceMethodProxy' object has no attribute 'title'

I am thankful for any hints.

Thank you for your ideas and I am sorry for my late reply.

I tried the previous suggestion and I think the query is not working properly. If I iterate the query result it returns all my media items. But I also do not see the problem. As far as I understood the Apple documentation, it looks correct to my.

I tried a different approach:

from objc_util import *

def main():
    NSBundle.bundleWithPath_(
        '/System/Library/Frameworks/MediaPlayer.framework').load()

    matchingItem = ["928428096"] # StoreId of "Songs of innocence"
    MPMusicPlayerController = ObjCClass('MPMusicPlayerController')
    player = MPMusicPlayerController.systemMusicPlayer()
    player.setQueueWithStoreIDs(matchingItem)
    player.play()


main()

I got the StoreId from this web site:
https://linkmaker.itunes.apple.com/de-de

This is working, but not as comfortable as I was looking for.

Hello

I am looking for a way to specify an existing album from my Music app and start playing it.

Is this possible with Pythonista 3 on iOS 12?

I appreciate any ideas or solutions.

Thank you
