Expected behavior App shouldn't be looking for local files in ZXInfo API. Just in general, the reason why you get all these details about a game from your local file - is actually because of the lookup in ZXInfo. The App creates a fingerprint of your local file and calls ZXInfo API in order to match it against a title in ZXDB database.

Converting .tap to .tzx using Spectrum Tape Loader v2.00 removes "fingerprint" and file can be played.
