Log media playing

Configuration
1

I am trying to log my media comsumption.
It is only my Apple TV which is used for playing media on my TV.

So I have setup a trigger to be when Apple TV starts playing for 10 sec.
The action is to make a special log.
In the message I would like to have the title of the media.
Under tracking in the automation I can find it in the change variables, but I do not know how to get it into the message.

Below is the changed variables.
Does anybody know how the get the title into a message in the automation?

this:
