Does search Google Play Music Outside Library

Open moderatoburrito opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

Hi Vince, I'm trying out your app now and I noticed that I can't search Google Play Music outside my library. It returns "Nothing found". As an example, I don't have "Daft Punk" in my library, and I get this result.

Perhaps a different issue but when I search, the song that is playing at the moment is interrupted briefly. Same if I "like" the song that's playing.

Hello! Indeed, on Google Play Music, the search is indeed limited to your library for now. A lot of limitations with Google Play are there because Harmony is using an unofficial API. That makes it much less flexible than Spotify or Soundcloud - for eg.

For the interruption issue, does it seems a slow down? Maybe a network issue? That shouldn't happen

Hi Vince,

Thanks for the reply! Okay, I must have missed that, about the limitation.

I think you were right about the network issue - not doing it now.

Thanks again.
