I would love to have this script unmute downloaded files and music as well that I added personally into music.

In Spotify you can add songs to your playlist from your local files. I hope you understand what I mean. I guess the script also detects that the downloaded file is not a song so it mutes the audio.Idk how long this script was made ago. sooooo id be happy to get a reply because I always use this script when i open Spotify :))))

Since I'm using the free version of Spotify I've never used that option.

But I would research about what's happening and ask for your help in a few days if that's ok with you.

It is possible to use this feature with a free account. I just tested it. You can add a folder in the settings.

I've run some tests and it works fine except when your file doesn't have the album name set.

The script detects an Ad by checking a few things, among those things is the albumName property. If that property is empty then is flagged as an Ad and the volume is muted. So it's working as expected.

I'm closing the ticket since it's not really a bug. Thanks for your contribution anyways 🤗.
