SMTC Bridge
SMTC Bridge was designed to expose Windows System Media Transport Controls (SMTC) as a clean REST API.
This was designed for developers to easily create their own "Now Playing" widgets that work with anything supported by SMTC, bypassing the complicated API limitations imposed by streaming platforms (fuck you Spotify).
Simply open run the system tray application, and a local web server will run in the background, accessible at http://127.0.0.1:5000/now-playing/
Endpoints
