Looks different to "Spotification" in that it seems to add 5 tracks at a time rather than 20 - is that right Michael?
That's correct. All those mixers and handlers for DSTM are responsible for how and what they add. Spotify would deliver the full list in one single query. For LastMix I often have to run multiple queries (to last.fm, mysb.com and/or the music service) for a single track. I saw mixes where it took 30s and dozens of requests to come up with those five tracks...
The problem is that Last.fm does not return track IDs or the like. Therefore the plugin has to run searches based on artist and track name on those music services. And again only Spotify would allow me to use both items for the search. In all other cases I would get a list of title matches, from which I have to figure out which was by the desired artist.
It's a bit messy. But I've learned a few lessons with SmartMix already :-). -- Michael _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
