How to get disc number for tracks?

Dev Community Dev/API Corner

Hi, I’m making a music metadata agent, and have searched pretty deeply, but haven’t been able to find any way to get the disc number for tracks when updating. I did notice that the web api has it as parentIndex, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to get this using the framework. I could technically ask users to enter their token, and then get this info via the api during update, but that seems very less than ideal. Would anyone happen to know any other way to get the disc number for tracks after scan?

Bonus round: Is it possible to set track names for multi-disc episodes? When I use the web api hack, setting metadata.tracks[i].name sets the name for track i on every disc. This seems like a bug. Example:

for i in range(1, 6):
    metadata.tracks[i].name = str(i) + ' track indices on both discs'
for i in range(23, 28):
    metadata.tracks[i].name = str(i) + ' track indices only on second disc'
