I am creating a site, where it is possible to search for songs. Now I want to integrate a player with short song previews.
I came across this question, which was asked more than 8 years ago and the services are not existing anymore and most of the other questions are referring Apple Music API.
I also looked at the Spotify API, which does not have previews for many songs, only some. Apple Music API I cannot use because of the reason, you need a paid developer account for API access.
Please let me know if you know other good APIs which offer a good search and previews. It would be great to have one which offer both.
Thanks,
Michael

I'm using an API (TLDR) to use AI to provide a Human-like written summary of articles. The API pushes out unformatted text with no line breaks or paragraphs.
I'm looking for an online service (API) that can prettify / beautify the text and add meaningful paragraphs and line breaks.
Does anything like this exist or should I create my own service? Example text output below.
Six years after Yahoo purchased Tumblr for north of $1 billion, its
parent corporation is selling the once-dominant blogging platform.
WordPress owner Automattic Inc. has agreed to take the service off of
Verizon’s hands. Terms of the deal are undisclosed, but the number is
“nominal,” compared to its original asking price, per an article in
The Wall Street Journal.Axios is reporting that the asking price for
the platform is “well below $20 million,” a fraction of a fraction of
its 2013 price tag.Once the hottest game in town, the intervening
half-decade has been tough on Tumblr, as sites like Facebook,
Instagram, Reddit and the like have since left the platform in the
dust. More recently, a decision to ban porn from the platform has had
a marked negative impact on the service’s traffic. According to Sensor
Tower, first-time users for Tumblr’s mobile app declined 33%
year-over-year last quarter.“Tumblr is one of the Web’s most iconic
brands,” Automattic CEO Matt Mullenweg said of the news. “It is an
essential venue to share new ideas, cultures and experiences, helping
millions create and build communities around their shared interests.
We are excited to add it to our lineup, which already includes
WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Jetpack, Simplenote, Longreads, and
more.”The news certainly isn’t surprising. In May, it was reported
that Verizon was looking for a new owner for the site it inherited
through its acquisition of Yahoo. Tumblr was Yahoo’s largest
acquisition at the time, as then-CEO Marissa Mayer “promise[d] not to
screw it up” in a statement made at the time.Tumblr proved not to be a
great fit for Yahoo — and even less so Verizon, which rolled the
platform into its short-lived Oath business and later the Verizon
Media Group (also TechCrunch’s umbrella company). On the face of it,
at least, Automattic seems a much better match. The company runs
WordPress.com, one of the internet’s most popular publishing tools,
along with Jetpack and Simplenote. As part of the deal, the company
will take on 200 Tumblr staffers.“We couldn’t be more excited to be
joining a team that has a similar mission. Many of you know
WordPress.com, Automattic’s flagship product. WordPress.com and Tumblr
were both early pioneers among blogging platforms,” Tumblr fittingly
wrote in a blog post. “Automattic shares our vision to build
passionate communities around shared interests and to democratize
publishing so that anyone with a story can tell it, especially when
they come from under-heard voices and marginalized
communities.”.“Today’s announcement is the culmination of a
thoughtful, thorough and strategic process,” Verizon Media CEO Guru
Gowrappan said in a statement. “Tumblr is a marquee brand that has
started movements, allowed for true identities to blossom and become
home to many creative communities and fandoms. We are proud of what
the team has accomplished and are happy to have found the perfect
partner in Automattic, whose expertise and track record will unlock
new and exciting possibilities for Tumblr and its users.

Now a days since HTML5 is around, neither Flash nor Java is supported by browsers for audio/video recording. As per my knowledge WebRTC is leading framework being used by developers to achieve this. In a web based application my client wants to provide audio/video/screen recording. I can quickly think of WebRTC as I believe Google Meet uses same. However when digging out little further I realized WebRTC cannot record screen. Then question came to my mind:
What framework is mostly used for audio/video/screen recordings? There are few other web services (for e.g. Loom) they too provided similar interface and allow a/v/s recordings. Please can someone share what framework and technologies these web applications use now a days?
Many thanks in advance.
The app is available at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pereira.live - this is a very popular app, but I"m not sure how the app gets live scores. I've searched all over the internet but cannot find any API that streams this
Well, first of all it, it might not be a public API. Quite possible that Fallow Chess agreed with chess24.com for cooperative work and the API is protected. The things you can do:
You can sniff your Android network traffic and see where the requests are going. Still if it is not public API, you can't use it.
The other thing you/they can do (which regarding to some terms and laws might be illegal !!) with a web crawler to fetch/process the data from the site and send it to the app. Firebase is a great technology for such cases.
The implementation is very simple... If there is a way that they can fetch data from external sources, they'll do it. Otherwise, they'll do the moves manually. Follow Chess is managed by a small team of Indian developers. They can just sit and relay the moves during the games.
PS: Follow Chess is not very popular, in particular when you compare it with what chess24 can offer.
I have been trawling through all I can to do with the Google GData YouTube API and its doing nothing but hurting my brain, Google do not make it clear to learn and there seesm to be little content online about it (Objective-C iOS, Mac).
I just want to achieve one of the most simply tasks, search YouTube, getting thumbnails, descriptions, titles etc for the search results. If you can help with this I would appreciate it. I am unsure of where to start.
Alternatively if you can recommend some good resources for learning the API I'd appreciate it, thanks.
The YouTubeSample app would be the most straightforward example. You would need to first read and understand the API library documentation.
I'm just at the startup level in ipad/iphone programming. There is a project in my mind, but I need some guidance on key points:
fundemental requirements:
1)user interface and interaction like wired magazine app(playing movies on page,etc)
2)accessing the timeuser spent on pages and videos
more:
-accessing another application's data (and let's say that application can give permission, if there is so)
Maybe these are just easy things to figure out, but if you could point me where to look I would be pleased.
PS: I have more than 10+ top seller ebooks on ipad/ios/iphone programming and I'm started to reading them. To be clear, names of these concepts (in what way I should research accessing the time user spent on a page- I did try on google on my own words but could not get the desired result)or some material pointing the issues really ease my way.
The UI portion of your question should be pretty easy to get to, it will just take learning a lot of the Cocoa Touch library, probably even a bit of Core Foundation.
There are two books I highly recommend:
Programming iOS 4
iPhone Programming: Big Nerd Ranch
I strongly recommend Programming iOS 4, primarily because it has been updated for XCode 4.
To answer your other question: to the best of my knowledge, you are not allowed to access other application's data due to sandboxing. You can, however, share data between your own apps if they share the same App ID.
First, as to the question on sharing data between apps. You can pass data between apps - basically launching one app from another and passing arguments. This can go both ways. If this is what you want, I'll share more on that.
As to learning, I recommend devouring Apple's documents, their samples, and Stackoverflow. Most of the iPhone development books you come across on development will be useful.
