How it connects
How Now Playing reads djay Pro
Now Playing connects directly to Algoriddim's djay Pro and captures track changes as you mix: title, artist, album, artwork, and BPM. It works with local libraries and the streaming sources djay supports, with nothing to configure inside djay Pro.
From there it's the same everywhere: tracks flow to your overlay, Twitch chat, files, and every other output the moment they go on air.
What works
- djay Pro on macOS and Windows, all current versions
- Local libraries, Apple Music (macOS), and djay's streaming sources
- Title, artist, album, artwork, and BPM as djay shows them
Known limits
- Metadata for streamed tracks is as rich as the catalog provides
