Feature Request: Now Playing info for Android Auto

Would it be possible to add "Year - Album" and "song# of playlist total" on the now playing screen of Android Auto?
ie:
Alice Cooper
Snakebite
1991 - Hey Stoopid
1:31/4:33 03 of 13

Also, I've noticed I'm not able to properly browse through my library in Android Auto unless the vehicle is in park, I assume that's by design. But I wonder if anyone knows of a workaround. I can't shuffle starred tracks from the radio in Android Auto either, I've got to set it up on the phone and then play it on the radio.

Despite my very finicky feature wishes, I still think DSub is by far the best option for Android Auto music. Thanks very much for all the work on a great app.

I fully agree. This would be very cool.

Added as a TODO on Github: https://github.com/daneren2005/Subsonic/issues/1040. As for browsing your full library that is an Android Auto limitation and not something I can control.
