Scraping music data from Instagram image and sidecar posts

Open

emmasinclair opened this issue

Instagram now allows users to post a musical song or sound as part of there image or sidecar (carousel) posts. This scraper works for getting music meta data from videos but not from images and sidecars. Can it be updated to get that data for images and sidecars?

For example on this Instagram sidecar post there is a sound / music called 'waves and gulls at the seaside':

You can only see / hear this music on mobile, not on desktop. Thank you!

Hi!

Music metadata is only available as part of extended post details, so we need to get it all, and it is pretty complex to implement. We will add optional extended post details in 2 or 3 months from now.

Will keep you informed about the progress.

Thank you for this update Alexey. That would be super helpful. This is a great scraper and we use it often but having that additional detail would be very beneficial. Please drop me a note here in 2-3 months time when it is available
