Unable to jump to artist on SB Radio when playing songs via spotty

[rosscullen]

I have notice an issue on SB Radio when playing anything on Spotty. When I press and hold the scrollwheel and navigate down to "Artist: [Artistname]" and select it, it won't bring me to that artist.

If I try the same using a song from my local library, it works fine. Any suggestions? I am using latest version of Lyrion and a recent custom firmware for SB Radio. Thanks

That feature only exists for items which are indexed into your music library: the menu item would refer to this artist in your library.

But there should be "On Spotify..." links taking you to the artist on Spotify. Can you confirm?

@michaelherger thanks for reply.

Yes, the artist(s) are in my local library. For example, if I go into Spotty and play artist "Alien Ant Farm". While playing, I hold down the scroll wheel and navigate to "Artist: Alien Ant Farm" (which is in my local library). I select it but it just shakes (eg. it does not move off this screen).

I can confirm that I can select the "on Spotify: Alien Ant Farm" option and that works.

It would be great to get it working as sometimes I come across a song on Spotify and I like to check my local library to see what I have stored locally for this artist. Thanks

Can you further specify: the track you're playing, is it a local track, or a remote track imported to your library? Would you mind sharing your server.log.zip (Settings/Information) with me?

Ok, re-reading your last comment I understand it's a Spotify track. And yes, I can reproduce this. I'm surprised... Will look into this! Thanks for the heads up!

Phew! Thank goodness, i'm not going crazy 😥 Glad to hear you were able to reproduce @michaelherger

Hi @michaelherger gentle reminder on above (to keep it active)... appreciate you are really busy with the recent events and subsequent changes. Thanks 👍🏻

Oh, I actually addressed this in #1095: LMS would link to the artist if it was known in the local library. In other cases you'd have to use the "On Spotify" menu to navigate to the artist on Spotify specifically.

Thanks @michaelherger had a quick look and works really well. Many thanks as ever 😊👍
