Description

It would be cool if I can see song that playing right now on spotify or any other music players on my screen. I think there is some crossplatform python libraries that get mediainfo from OS API.

I've seen this in MangoHud before.

Research direction

The issue names no file or test, so first locate the theme data structure and the code that supplies displayed system information. Research cross-platform Python access to current-player metadata through OS APIs, with MangoHud as a reference. Done means the theme can represent the currently playing song from supported music players on the screen.
