Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui/issues/766

spotify-tui will displace the selected track by one for each unavailable track that is before the selected song.

I have a playlist where one of the songs is only available in certain regions. I am currently in Norway where Spotify doesn't have distribution rights for "Routine" by "Silent Siren".

If you look at the screenshot you can see the unavailable track roughly two fifths down the playlist. If i try to play any song before the unavailable track, it plays as expected. If i try to play Routine, it plays the next song instead, this is expected as this is the same behavior as the main Spotify client. But if you try to play any song at all after the unavailable song, it will play the song below your selection despite the selected song being available.

For example if i select Routine, it will play Zenbukudaranee, so the song is playable. But if i select Zenbukudakaranee, it will instead play ハロ/ハワユ(the next song in the playlist). and the same applies for every song after the unavailable song.

My playlist is at 泣いてるの？ if you want to play around with it,(Unless the song IS available wherever you live.)
