Hi Michael and thank you very much for your work on Spotty, which I started using yesterday evening.
I found a problem in Beethoven Symphony No. 6 and am unsure whether it is the Spotify tracks themselves that are broken or whether there is some special handling of "attacca" in Spotify that Spotty is failing to handle. In classical music a movement can usually be handled as a "song" in a playlist (the work) as long as the songs in the playlist are played in the right order. Attacca is an instruction that the movements must be played flowing into each other without a break. The metadata changes as one movement flows into the next, but there should be no interruption to the sound. Movements 3-4 and 4-5 of Beethoven's symphony No. 6 are attacca. In Spotify this causes the end of movement 3 to stop, but movement 4 refuses to play at all. Movement 5 has some problems for the first few seconds but recovers and plays fine after that. You can find the tracks by searching for: Beethoven 6 - Dudamel by Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, Gustavo Dudamel "beethoven 6, dudamel" seems to be a good search. "Attacca" is a general pain in the @55 as the best case scenario is that there is an unwanted hiccupp between the tracks. It would be really great if you could find a good way to handle it (as long as there is something in the source material that indicates it). Cheers and thanks again for all the fantastic work you are putting in! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learnincurve's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64807 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107615
