Force updating metadata cache

2020-09-16 14:05:32

I'm writing component that plays headless raw PCM files.
https://github.com/dofuuz/foo_input_raw


It plays file correctly. Changing preference affects playback as intended.

But file's information(Length, Sample rate, Channels, Bits per sample, Bitrate) is fixed to it's first load.
Changing preference won't update general file infos.

I tried to use decode_get_dynamic_info() but it does not update properties detail.

Is there any way to refresh/delete metadata cache on changing preference?
Or force updating on playback time?

Not unless you want to change the file's modification time. Or force the user to reload the info manually.
