been having problems with my preloader, and someone suggested this:

async def setupPreloader():
    global preloader
    preloader = None
    preloader = await songsFind()
asyncio.run(setupPreloader())

this still doesnt work and the preloader is STILL running synchronously and waiting for the await to arrive, causing about a full second of lag while the disk is being scanned

the full code is available at here under downloads, get the bare version if you just want a running copy for testing/crossreference
