Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the HLS timed-metadata and ID3/emsg references and comparing the linked sample stream with mpv's current metadata output. Done means the currently playing artist/title and supported ID3 metadata are exposed for HLS streams.

Description
Expected behavior of the wanted feature
It would be wonderful to have currently playing title support, ideally full ID3 metadata, for HLS streams
For example:
https://hls.somafm.com/hls/groovesalad/320k/program.m3u8
mpv currently shows no meaningful metadata beyond basic encoder info
The StreamS reference decoder shows current artist/title info
https://somafm.com/hls/gsplayer.html?320k
It seems ffplay doesn't handle this correctly, so this points again towards HLS needing more love
