Track name not changing when playing multiple tracks via DLNA
« on: January 24, 2019, 02:45:00 pm »

Hi folks.
I am copying a message I had posted in the Mac forum here, but didn’t get any response.
So, sorry for the noise...
I use MC 24 latest version on the Mac

I think there is a bug, or it's a behavior/limitation form playing via DLNA.

I create a playlist.
Then I select it and send it for play to a DLNA target (a raspberry running MoOde).
Music plays fine, but either the MoOde player nor MC keep track properly of which track is actually playing.

It looks like it is the first track playing for the time of the entire playlist on MC.
On MoOde, it's the name of the second track that shows up, and again it doesn't change for the rest of the session.

Same problem with a different DLNA renderer (a Sony STR-DN1050 receiver).
MC shows the first track name the whole time.
The Sony shows the name of the second track. and a duration of the track equal to the total of the album/playlist.

I've tried so far with only tracks part of the same album.
I would have to try with different albums to check if it triggers a metadata change on the players.

Is that a bug only on my side or something that can be reproduced by somebody else?
Is that because MC needs to send the track as one to enable gapless or something like this?
