Basically I have a bunch of consoles that I use for LAN parties but I'm curious if there is a stealth server service I can apply to all my consoles without spending too much $$$. Thanks!

Had a chance to play with the new update, and so far, very impressed, not having any issues with it skipping songs or displaying the wrong track so far. Excellent work!!

A song I was struggling with before this update was Electric Lady Dance - Cro-Magnon. No matter what, it would only instead play the track Dance Apocalyptic - Janelle Monae. Today I searched up the track and it actually played the correct Cro-Magnon track! So I went to download it locally. And when playing it locally.... nope, its the incorrect Janelle Monae track!

This is just a specific example I've run into. the scraping is definitely better in my experience, but it seems theres still some distinction between how the app treats streaming vs downloads thats causing downloads specifically to remain inaccurate.

GREAT UPDATE! GREAT WORK!!

I am still collecting observations of inaccurate songs but this is strictly a UI issue. Just writing this down here since I'm never on discord so we can all focus on making this app better.

If I select a song, it will consistently play the song Ive selected. HOWEVER, If I let it continue playing whatever playlist I've selected, it will CONSISTENTLY play the SUBSEQUENT song in the playlist, mismatched with whatever is being displayed in the app.

ie, If a playlist's tracklist is songs A, B, C, etc...

If I select song A, it will play A just fine, then after that track it will show B, but will play the audio of track C, skipping B entirely. Then after that track it will show C, but actually play D. et cetera. Interestingly, it will ALWAYS remain offset by exactly one song until I manually select another song. I've never seen the playback become offset by more than one track.

These are mostly songs that are downloaded for offline play as well. As a separate issue I still have very long load times for songs, including local downloads, sometimes taking up to ten seconds to load, which is really unexpected for locally downloaded files (then not even playing the correct song lol)

I am on iOS 18.7.9 by the way.

In summary, I'm very glad to pay a tiny amount for better search results.

I've been struggling to find a bunch of (mostly) Japanese music that hasn't been accessible via Spotiflac, Claudochrome, etc. And this is all music that is available on Spotify and Apple Music.

So the music addon adds results as they would appear on Apple Music/Tidal, the album organization is all good. And I am definitely finding more accurate songs than I wouldve otherwise. But there are still plenty of more obscure albums where, as an example, it will only play one song from the album for every single track. And there are still a few Ive found that are playing totally different songs from totally different artists I don't recognize.

So while it appears to pull music as though it was from Apple/Tidal, thats not exactly whats going on under the hood and its still imperfect.
