### Known Bugs ### Known Bugs
- **Web (download)** — Downloading a not-yet-owned album **straight from an artist page** can fail with "Nicht eindeutig gefunden" and search YouTube for "**Unknown Artist** &lt;album&gt;". Three causes combine: (1) Deezer's `/artist/{id}/albums` omits the `artist` object, so the discography cards carry an **empty artist name** (`_dzAlbum` → `artistName: ''`); (2) `openDlModal` defaults to **type=track** even for album cards (the `isAlbum` flag is ignored), so a one-click download treats the album as a single track named after the album; (3) `downloads.js` substitutes the literal string `"Unknown Artist"` for the empty name, which then poisons the yt-dlp search query **and** the `artist ~= Unknown` / `channel ~= Unknown` filter. Workaround: switch the type to *Album* in the modal, or use the direct-link importer. Not yet fixed.
- **Android (lyrics)** — Synced-lyrics auto-scroll is **not smooth**: it follows playback and highlights the right line, but the list jumps to it rather than gliding. Web autoscroll is smooth.

- **Web (PWA, desktop)** — The Windows media tile (SMTC) briefly closes and reopens when skipping tracks. Swapping the `<audio>` element's source leaves a momentary gap with no active media output, so Windows tears down and rebuilds the tile. A real fix needs one continuous source (MSE), which requires streaming an MSE-compatible format. The native Android app is unaffected. (The two-element gapless handoff added in 1.1 makes skips effectively instant but does **not** fix this — switching elements still ends and restarts the OS session.) - **Web (PWA, desktop)** — The Windows media tile (SMTC) briefly closes and reopens when skipping tracks.

- **Backend (download)** — The duplicate check requires at least a `firstArtist` folder match. If the same song was previously stored under a very different artist name (e.g. before an iTunes-name fix), it will not be detected as a duplicate and will be re-downloaded. - **Backend (download)** — The duplicate check requires at least a `firstArtist` folder match.
