My Question or Issue

The MPRIS Length, the data used for remote controlling the spotify player from other apps on the linux desktop systems, uses a signed 64 bit integer, but the spec says it *must* be an unsigned 64 bit integer here:

https://specifications.freedesktop.org/mpris/latest/Track_List_Interface.html#Mapping:Metadata_Map

> represented as a signed 64-bit integer.

Oh damn, and now I also did the wrong thing. It must be a signed 64-bit integer. But Spotify is using an unsigned int.

Please reach out if something is unclear about the spec. I will then clean up the parts and make it easier to understand.
