[BUG] Application Window does not show song and artist when artist name contains '-'

[BUG] Application Window does not show song and artist when artist name contains '-'

Usually when a song is playing, the Application Window shows text of format `Artist - Song` Eg. `Backstreet Boys - Chances` and displays `Spotify - Free` otherwise when song paused and nothing playing. So I wondered, what if the Artist name has a hyphen, how would it separate then. I checked by playing songs by artist Nu-matic and it just shows `Spotify Free` in the application window instead of the song, artist info. To reproduce: play song by Nu-matic and check application window.

 Hey @aadibajpai.

 

Thanks for your question 🙂

 

We tried reproducing this on our end, and it seems to be working normally: when playing a song by Nu-matic, it still appears in the format [Artist - Song] in the application window:

Could you try a clean reinstall of the app by following these steps? If that doesn't work, let us know the exact Spotify version you're running, and we'll look into it.

 

Thanks! We'll be looking out for your reply.
