I can understand that the limitation on the first item could be linked to a database but little unclear about how the second issue is linked to a database limitation.
I couldn’t find the entry about this.

Just to clarify a little.
I have two types of playlists programmed up on the firefly server, a static playlist and a smartplaylist.

When I select the smart playlist the genre, artist and albums are updated to reflect the contents of the playlist.
If I select a filter by selecting only one of the artists then only the songs in the playlist that are by this artist appear.
Normal.

I repeat this but with a static playlist.
I select a filter by selecting only one of the artists.
Still all the songs in the playlist appear not just the songs that are in the playlist that are from that artist.

Is this really due to a database limitation?

As for the 3rd point I have done some more “investigation” and noticed what I believe may clarify the issue further.

I have added some songs to the queue.
Scenario 1
I am playing a song (eg song number 4) and switch to browse albums.
I switch back to the Queue just before the next song starts.
The next song that starts playing is song 5 in the queue.
Normal

Scenario 2
I am playing a song (eg song number 4) and switch to browse albums. The song finishes while I am still browsing. I would expect that the next song that starts is the same as scenario 1, song 5 in the queue.
Instead the next song that starts is song 5 in the album I am browsing.. 😕
