And what domain would that be? It wouldn't happen to be:
-
Amazon.com (covers)
or
- one of the lyrics websites (lyrics plugin)
or
-
audioscrobbler.com (for the last.fm functionality)
We're working upstream on making all those disabled if NetworkManager
doesn't see a network connection. See:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322266
In the meanwhile, those lookups would be normal.
Right. But even if NetworkManager detects a connection, that doesn't
mean it's actually working - moving to the track shouldn't block, the
lookup should be asynchronous ideally. It's still great software! :-)
