Description
When playing music in an external player, (e.g. Spotify, Rhythmbox or VLC) the program should be able to connect to the selected media player and extract the following for the file that is currently playing:
- Filename
- Title
- Artist
- Album
- Track number
- File duration
- Current timestamp
An associated widget can be created to display said information

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are identified. First map how the program handles playback and widgets, then investigate metadata access for Spotify, Rhythmbox, and VLC; done means displaying the requested filename, track metadata, duration, and playback position in an associated widget.
