2022-10-02 Thread RichieB
I'm running Spotty v4.8.4 and I noticed an album of which only a few tracks were playable. That happens in the Spotify GUI as well: sometimes tracks are not available due to regional rights, etc. But this time I was unable to find the album and tracks using the Spotify GUI at all. The album is

I just did some searches in my library and noticed it is now lightning fast! Before I would have to wait several seconds before the results to appear, now they are there instantly. I'm not sure if something was changed in iPeng or it is because I upgraded LMS to the latest 7.9 version. Either
