I've updated the lazy search music plugin again to fix a few problems.
As usual, you can download it from here:

Again, many thanks for all the suggestions and bug reports - I
appreciate it. If anyone else has any bright ideas let me know.

I'm currently looking at MusicMagic integration - no promises, but I'm
a beta tester of the new Linux version.

The changes in this version are:

* Includes a better (but still unpleasant) workaround for the duplicate
artists bug. This one will still temporarily remove the lazification
from the database when music rescans are taking place, but because it
now does it in small chunks it won't make the server go unresponsive or
cause players to stall. The player/web interface won't immediately
report that a rescan is in progress (because I have to delay it until
I've removed the artist lazification), but I think I can live with that
until a better solution comes along.

* Changed the way tracks are lazified so that it should no longer
trigger a rescan of those tracks by SlimServer. It is hoped this might
cure the 'endless rescan' reports. Due to the use of 'lightweighttrack'
it may even make the building of the lazy search index faster. Thanks to
Steven Moore for the bug report and for testing.

* Added a 'play all' item to the end of each search request (except
genres). Playing or adding this will be like playing or adding each
item in the search results. Thanks to dfk for the suggestion.

* Fixed crasher when pressing PAUSE or STOP on a lazy search result
list. Thanks to wactuary for reporting it.

* Song search should be faster due to the use of 'lightweighttrack'
rather than full-fat track objects.

* More efficient searching for items in the database that require a
'lazy search version' to be created.

* Pressing SEARCH after a lazy search has already been performed pops
back to the lazy search category menu. Previously, this did nothing if
there wasn't a 'pending' search (such as a search entered that was
below the minimum search length). This means that after searching for
something (and possibly adding it to a playlist), you can press SEARCH
to start searching for the next thing.
