What's new in v1.0.3:

Added support for plex.tv
Fixed "number of scrolls" on first boot

What's new in v1.0.2:

🌍 Universal Language Support: The extension now accurately detects playback on Spotify regardless of language setting (Japanese, Spanish, English, etc.).

✨ Smart Metadata Filtering: Implemented a silent filtering layer that identifies and suppresses non-song metadata. This ensures that promotional tags, advertisements, and system placeholders are not transmitted to your LED Matrix, keeping your display clean and focused on the video/music.
