Material, despite its name, is more of an app than a skin. As such it
uses a different API/protocol, called SlimBrowse. Unfortunately Spotty,
etc, does not provide the year (at the required level) when this is
used. You can see the same missing years using other apps such as
Squeezer or iPeng. If Michael would expand the SlimBrowse API to have
year (and track durations?) as separate fields (so not "Album (Year) BY
Artist") that would be great - but it does require a change in Spotty
and/or LMS.



*Material debug:* 1. Launch via http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json
(Use http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json,cometd to also see update
messages, e.g. play queue) 2. Open browser's developer tools 3. Open
console tab in developer tools 4. REQ/RESP messages sent to/from LMS
will be logged here.
