Bug Description

I've just migrated to Lucid Lynx, and the dynamic playlist feature works quite badly, only for some tracks. Under Karmic, the same tracks provoked the add of new tracks to the playslist. The plugin is selected in the preferences, the icon is activated, but new tracks are added to the playlist only once or twice for the whole playlist. Could someone help me ? This is a key a key feature for me in Exaile, and not having it working good makes me really sad :/

Version : 0.3.1.1-0ubuntu1
Ubuntu Lucid Lynx

Attached is the log from running exaile from console.

Similar problem, I think.

When I run Exaile in console, I can see xl.dynamic finds 0 tracks for most songs in the debug console. Occasionally a few songs with lower case tags for artist and title will make it through the screen. Ubuntu 10.04 lucid 64-bit.

Thank you-

This could be fixed by ignoring case when submitting to Last.FM
Easy enough to do, function to convert a string to lowercase exists in Python.
I'd do it myself but I'm not sure of the development process.
