That's the problem. I always forget to account for that for the album art image links. In the main app I can tell the system to use authentication with every network connection from the app. Since Android Auto is a separate app, I'll have to put the login into the image url.

Artist List Image
I seem to be having problems where image for artist & album artwork are displayed wrongly. On the artist list random pictures of other artists appear. And when playing, random album artwork appears.
Everything looks OK using web browser.
Not sure when this started happening. I'm guessing some cach is corrupted perhaps. Have tried uninstalling & re-installi with no change. Could it be something to the number of tracks....up to about 25000 now...?
Any ideas what could be causing this or how to fix it?Last edited by ntom; 2019-11-13, 13:53.SB Touch (modded)/RME ADI-2 or Linn LP12/MuseII/AudioMods Tonearm/Cyrus Signature, Cambridge Audio Azur 851E pre & 851W power amps, Martin Logan Aerius iComment

For the now playing screen I've tried loading the image separately and passing the bitmap to Android Auto and in works ok except that app freezes after the next song is loaded. Not sure if it's just Android Auto on my phone though.

Actually it turns out I can't fix it. Android auto will not accept login info in the image url and if I load them separately and pass the bitmap to Android auto, it slows the list loading to a crawl.

Search history in top search bar
Hi,
First of all: Squeeze Ctrl is great!!
I wonder if there is a setting for showing a search history while using the top search bar? Using the search function within Spotty a list with the latest searches turns up. I would love this for the general search bar.

Unexpected Behavior
Hi there - longtime squeeze control user, I love it.
I encountered some unexpected behavior today. I went into my local music via My Music -> Genres and picked a Genre (Holiday, in my case) and it shows all artists that have music in that Genre. I wanted to add all the holiday music by that artist (e.g. Canadian Brass) to the end of my playlist so I long clicked on the plus and then selected Add to End. It, instead, added all of the albums by that artist instead of just the ones in that genre and added them all. After experimenting, the same is true with Play Next or Play.
I think I usually "short click" the plus symbol. This adds to end and behaves as I'd expect - only adding the music from that artist that is in the selected Genre. So, it's an easy workaround, obviously, but can (should?) this behavior be fixed? Not sure how others use it.
Thanks!Comment

I just tried it on my setup (MacOS server, latest version) and the the server approach behaves exactly how I'd expect it to, but the squeeze control app does not. There's a difference between server and app behavior. Specifically:
Via the server: if I select My Music -> Genres -> Holiday (as an example) -> and then select the triangle play button that is in the same row as a specific artist it will play JUST the holiday albums by that artist.
Via squeeze control: if I select My Music -> Genres -> Holiday (or whatever) -> scroll to specific artist, press and hold the circle-plus button and select play, it will queue ALL albums by that artist, not just the holiday albums. (Same with Add To End and Play Next, both add all albums not just the specific genre'd albums).
Of note - it does behave as I'd expect if I short click the circle-plus button. In that case it adds just the holiday albums by that artist to the end.
Thank you!Comment

The list of items in the context menu and the commands associated with each item is retrieved in whole from the server. So when you click on an item, the app just sends the command it got from the server. The problem you are experiencing is a bug that needs to be fixed on the server.
