2 weeks ago So when reading this playlist I have, the issue is with the parsing of ContentMetadataView.
Parsing assumes that a ContentMetadataView contains rows, and each row contains parts, and each part is a text. But in my case I see that a part can be of type AvatarStack, which seems to be a list of avatars (I assume this is because maybe it is possible, or it will become possible, to collaborate on creating a playlist by multiple people maybe?)
Here's the json of this ContentMetadataView causing the bug
