Search results for artists display as blank rows

[mkaito]

See image below for search results side by side from mpc and ncmpcpp.

When added to the playlist, it correctly displays their name in the "added to playlist" message.

If it works in other MPD clients, surely this is a bug in this version of ncmpcpp.

That might be. Ario displays things just fine. Is there a difference between artists and other entries in the way they are sent over the mpd protocol?

I use the same version of ncmpcpp without any problems.

There shouldn't be any difference between artists and the other results, apart from the names.

What is the output of this?
echo 'search any "alicia keys"' | nc localhost 6600

A bunch of these:

OK MPD 0.17.0
file: spotify:artist:3DiDSECUqqY1AuBP8qtaIa
Time: 0
Artist: Alicia Keys
Title: Artist: Alicia Keys
Album:
Track: 0

You using the same version of ncmpcpp without issues would suggest that something else is wrong. Is your version of mopidy also the same?

[trygveaa]

Hm, that output looks correct, so then I'm not sure why ncmpcpp fails to show it. Can you paste all of the output in a pastebin or something?

I use Mopidy 0.19.4 (installed from the AUR package).

Sure, here's the response: http://pastebin.com/wRYFQWVH

Checked with ncmpc and ncmpcpp-git, it seems the issue was indeed ncmpcpp-local and has been resolved.
