Hi sir,
     The target part you said is working fine. I want to know how to get 
the control side information which dbus mwthod call will provide the 
metadata information. In control-api there is no api for getting 
metadata from the remote device. please help in the above mentioned 
scenario which will be very useful for my understanding of avrcp in bluez
