Hi, I think since v4 playing a file, is replacing the playlist. So this is the Browse item:

<item 
text="Overcome" 
contextMenuKey="Tidal:contextMenu etc..." 
playURL="/Add?service=Tidal&amp;file=Tidal%3A293017731&amp;playnow=1"
duration="215"
image="/Artwork?service=Tidal&amp;songid=Tidal%3A293017731&amp;albumid=293017727&amp;fn=Tidal%3A293017731" 
text2="Nothing But Thieves • Overcome" 
autoplayURL="/Add?service=Tidal&amp;listindex=0&amp;nextlist=1&amp;where=last&amp;cursor=last&amp;playnow=1&amp;service=Tidal&amp;expr=overcome" 
type="track"></item>

When I use the playUrl it used to add the file to the current playlist and start playing that song. Now it replaces the entire playlist. So I fire:

Request: http://<my_ip>:11000/Add?service=Tidal&file=Tidal%3a300821367&playnow=1

Response: <addsong id="12" count="1" length="1" />

As you can see it is replacing instead of adding. Is that a bug, or did I do something wrong here?

Maybe it is related to this: Adding to playlist in Mac 4.0.2 – The Bluesound Support Crew

  But that is something that was changed from v3 to v4 right? I don't think it's an improvement. I liked to grab back to what I had in the queue. Now I keep losing my play history.
