Plexamp: `3.4.3`  
Plex Server: Latest Docker image  
OS: Pixel 4a Android 11, Feb patch

I am not sure what caused it, but it happens despite force closing and wiping cache.  
I am doing hw, and started the download of an album, it had finished downloading and I went to click on ‘artists’ to download a 2nd one.

Strangely enough every other view works. It only crashes on the Artists/Albums/Tracks views. Folders, labels, and moods works fine.

Even stranger, if I switch to Tidal as my music source, all the views load fine. I suspect the Plex server is sending some image or metadata that is crashing the application.

I saw the iOS crash thread regarding downloading an entire library. I do have ~11gb in downloaded content (Fresh \<3, and a few albums), I dont know if this is pushing the limits of what plexamp intends.

How can I get logs that are relevant to this crash?

Edit: logcat

So sorry, just disable Blurred Action Bar and it’ll be all good. Fixed in the next release.

That’s crazy that that works 😅

Thanks for the quick workaround Elan!  
Waaay easier than searching for everything.

Edit:  
Even more strange, with it disabled, I get a nice pop-up letter when tapping the Artist list scrubber, this is nice touch!
