How to use rhythmbox-client of rhythmbox installed from flathub

1

Hello. I’d appreciate any advice you can give me.

I’m using rhythmbox from flathub.
Rhythmbox itself is working fine.
I’d like to know how to run rhythmbox-client.
I understand that rhythmbox runs in /var/lib/flatpak/app/org.gnome.Rhythmbox3/current/active/files/bin/rhythmbox.
I want to use rhythmbox-client in the same directory.
Using rhythmbox-client I can get the name of the musician and the title of the song being played. I want to handle these two in a shell script.
How should I start rhythmbox-client?

You should probably ask that on the issues of the package.

Hi there. I managed to solve it myself.

$ flatpak run --command=rhythmbox-client org.gnome.Rhythmbox3 --print-playing

I was able to run rhythmbox-client by running this.

Thanks.
