Title not being recognized when playing from stream

[BlessedLongsword]

Hello, first of all I'd like to thank you for your work in this project, I was really looking for a tool like this and I was almost able to set it up for my use case.

I use a media server (jellyfin) to watch anime, and I use a tool to stream to mpv, which is using mpv-mpris. If I try to use Tundra while watching the stream, it will fail with these logs:

I poked around the code to see if I could find the cause of this, and if I understood correctly, Tundra uses MPRIS to get metadata of the file being played, and stores the title and filename to the build the title for use in the MAL API using Recognizers. I suppose that the recognizer that is being used is using the filename instead of the title, since the title is displayed in the player and in the media metadata.

Sorry for my late reply! Yes, you are correct, currently Tundra assumes that you are watching a local file, hence the filename is used to recognize the title being played.

You are also correct that recognizers are the place where this logic happens. I think it shouldn't be very difficult to add additional functionality to make this work when you have full metadata provided by MPRIS (similarly to the ani-cli recognizer here), but I just didn't have time or enough motivation to do that yet. Feel free to contribute, though, as it sounds like a feature that might be useful to a lot of people.
