Find out what song is playing in a Chrome tab.
Once you play something the Chromesthesia icon should appear. In newer versions of Chrome the icon might always be visible but grayed out when inactive.
The extension is available in chrome web store at:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chromesthesia/gocpionhjoififoliaelkfheedcafgin
It's a Chrome extension that captures the audio playing in a tab and sends it to
audio recognition services. Currently two services are supported:
audD - No account required. 10 requests free per day
ACRCloud - Requires an account but there is a
free plan.
Uses shine to do mp3 compression.
Try to enable the "Remember my choice for all links of this type" in the launch application dialog.
Try to increase capture duration in options. It should be at least 10 seconds.
- Improve interaction and graphical design
- Write more matchers. Currently ACRCloud seems to be the only recognition service with an open API. There is acoustid but at time of writing it can only do whole song recognition.
Clone repo and use "Load unpacked extension..." on the chrome extensions page.
To auto reload on changes you can run devd in
the repo root devd -l . and uncomment reloadOnChange(); in background.js.
Have a look at dummyMatch.js.js and
matchers.js for how to test matcher results.
