Description bones7456 2009-07-13 08:57:17 UTC 
This may be not a bug... :)
I using banshee 1.4.3
dbus name = org.bansheeproject.Banshee , path = /org/bansheeproject/Banshee/PlayerEngine has some properties named 'CurrentUri','Length' etc. but has no org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties ?
then how can I get this information through dbus-send command?
thanks!

The PlayerEngine interface has a property named CurrentTrack that gives all the information about the current track in a dictionary of {String, Variant}.

For example, the following command (on one line) prints out all the info about the current track :

dbus-send --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=org.bansheeproject.Banshee /org/bansheeproject/Banshee/PlayerEngine org.bansheeproject.Banshee.PlayerEngine.GetCurrentTrack
