A bit of a weird question but maybe the DrivePool developers have an idea.
The new Windows 8 API has a nice method to get "music" properties of a file (Artist, Song name, Album, Rating, etc.). Documented here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/windows.storage.fileproperties.storageitemcontentproperties.getmusicpropertiesasync
When I call this on music files in a DrivePool, I get back an empty structure. It works on a "normal" disk. (Note that by default, a Windows 8 application can't go around reading random files. I do this using the Music Library permission and the Music Library is stored on a pool). I can't quite figure out what's different about DrivePool files that prevents this from working.
Note that the music properties appear fine in Explorer (but that uses the old Windows API).
It's a bit of a shame because I would really like to store my music collection in DrivePool but my (custom-made) music app won't work there. A long shot, but do you have any idea why DrivePool would cause this?
Thanks!
