    I notice WP does this handy trick of using the artist and track title to auto-create a description for the media track, I was wondering if MediaPress could do the same?

    Hi George,
    We already do it.
    https://github.com/buddydev/mediapress/blob/master/core/media/mpp-media-functions.php#L1162

    We use these details as fallback title/description for the media.

    Just to be clear, It happens on upload if the audio has these details.

    That’s strange, I wonder why that’s not happening for me?

    Are you sure it is the same file you are testing with. Is WordPress is able to extract the media data, so will we.

    We are using the “wp_read_audio_metadata() ” in the meta extraction in uploader which is the same function as WordPress.

    That should make it work with us too if the file works with WordPress(meta extraction).

    Yep I’m testing with the same file, via WP Media it gets the description, via mpp it does not.

    I will be testing it tonight. It’s strange but there might be some issue. Will test and get back to you later today.
