Context
Navidrome 0.62.0 added support for the OpenSubsonic playbackReport extension.
Currently Cassette appears to use the classic Subsonic scrobble flow:
scrobble(..., submission=false) when playback starts / now playing
scrobble(..., submission=true) after the scrobble threshold
This works for basic now-playing, but it does not report full playback state changes such as pause, resume, stop, seek position, and playback rate.
Why this would be useful
Server-side integrations can use playbackReport to track playback state more accurately.
For example, Navidrome's Discord Rich Presence plugin v2 uses PlaybackReport to show:
- playing / paused / stopped states
- pause icon / paused timer
- better progress timestamps
- cleaner presence clearing when playback stops
With Cassette, the server can see basic now-playing through scrobble, but it cannot receive the complete playback state like it does from Navidrome Web.
Expected behavior
Cassette should call the OpenSubsonic reportPlayback endpoint when supported by the server, including state changes such as:
- playing
- paused
- stopped
- position
- playback rate
Current behavior
Cassette appears to only use the older scrobble endpoint for server-side playback reporting.
Notes
The request is about reporting richer playback state back to compatible Subsonic/OpenSubsonic servers.
