With Noson, the button Next and Previous are designed to control the playing track in the playlist. A button is grayed out if there is no previous or next track. On the first track the Previous button should be grayed out, on the last track the next button should be grayed out. If you need to rewind or forward the playback just move the blue slider.
I've been using GNOME 40 now and I see similar behavior with the Mpris Indicator Button extension. It seems it's MPRIS that isn't receiving the information that the track can be skipped
The Noson app shows the track can be skipped, and using the Next media key will skip. This is again, super minor. I am mostly excited to be able to control Sonos volume from a permanent location with this extension.
*Missing album art is a known GNOME bug according to the developer of the MPRIS extension
Hi, it works as expected with gnome 3. I guess it is a bug elsewhere with mpris or gnome 4.
My guess would be that they don't check CanGoNext and CanGoPrevious anymore, and since noson returns false to HasTrackList they just assume it isn't possible to skip.
edit: nvm, at least plasma seems to be doing it correctly, though: https://github.com/KDE/plasma-workspace/blob/master/applets/mediacontroller/contents/ui/main.qml#L76-L77
Just started using Noson and love what it looks like today!
I'm on KDE and noticed that if I play music on the Sonos speaker through Spotify Connect, the KDE Media Player widget is unable to control next/previous tracks. It works fine on Noson. If I start Spotify playback from the Sonos app, the controls in Media Player work as expected.
Seems to consistently be able to reproduce:
Start Sonos playback from Spotify using Spotify Connect Open KDE Media Player Previous/Next buttons are grayed out and I'm unable to click on them. Play/Pause button works (Noson is able to skip/next, but not go back)
Expectation is that they are not grayed out and can be used to control playback
Same playlist played directly from Sonos app allows the controls to work
This is a very minor issue and probably very niche, but figured I opened it up just in case. Happy to help collect data to diagnose.
I tried this with the flatpak and then built it from source, behavior was the same.
