mediaplay cannot be detected by BTT

Bugs or Unexpected Behavior
1

(latest version of both BTT and macOS 15.4 Developer Beta)
System mediaplay cannot be detected by BTT, so all functions and triggers related don't work (eg. "NowPlaying" the Touch Bar widget/conditional group)

2

Unfortunately Apple blocks accessing the "Now Playing" Info on macOS 15.4. Maybe I will implement a workaround for the most common applications for the final release of macOS 15.4

(this affects all app that use the now playing info)

it was by the way a security related fix, because the now playing info could contain sensitive data which not all apps should be able to see (e.g. imagine some adult website playing some video ;-))
