Mix_GetMusicTitle(3) SDL_mixer3 FUNCTIONS Mix_GetMusicTitle(3)

NAME

Mix_GetMusicTitle - Get the title for a music object, or its filename.

SYNOPSIS

#include "SDL3_mixer/SDL_mixer.h"
const char* Mix_GetMusicTitle(const Mix_Music *music);

DESCRIPTION

This returns format-specific metadata. Not all file formats supply this!

If music is NULL, this will query the currently-playing music.

If music's title tag is missing or empty, the filename will be returned. If you'd rather have the actual metadata or nothing, use

Mix_GetMusicTitleTag () instead.

Please note that if the music was loaded from an SDL_IOStream instead of a filename, the filename returned will be an empty string ("").

This function never returns NULL! If no data is available, it will return an empty string ("").

FUNCTION PARAMETERS

the music object to query, or NULL for the currently-playing music.

RETURN VALUE

Returns the music's title if available, or the filename if not, or "".

AVAILABILITY

This function is available since SDL_mixer 3.0.0.
