    @jonas

    I'm truly confused by how it's working then.
    I have these 4 artists for example. (All my files are tagged using Picard - Musicbrainz)

    Using Album artist name (Album artist sort name) below. I use the Album artist name for sorting, though artist name is the same for these examples.

    These 2 get sorted under S for Sammy:
    Sammy Hagar (Hagar, Sammy)
    Sammy Hagar & The Circle (Hagar, Sammy & Circle, The)

    These 2 get sorted under H for Hagar
    Sammy Hagar and the Wabos (Hagar, Sammy and the Wabos)
    Sammy Hagar With Vic Johnson (Hagar, Sammy with Johnson, Vic)

    There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to the sorting.

    I can confirm that this issue is still ongoing; after a PC restart, strawberry started back up in Spanish.

    Does that mean flatpak currently offers dark mode? I don't see that option in my app installed via .deb file.

    The cause of this issue is that Strawberry does not find hidden album art in the album folder but amarok and clementine do.

    I have taken the Clementine patch issued in 2012 and modified it for the current gentoo release of Strawberry and raised it as an issue on the strawberry github. https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/issues/1809

    I didn't see any requests for it in Crowdin, but I've added them now so they should be available right now.

    Hi all, I searched the forums, but couldn't find a match.

    First off, I'm running Debian 12.6 "Bookworm" KDE DE. In Strawberry, every time I select 'Show in file browser' in the context menu it opens up Easytag instead of the Dolphin file manager!

    Any reason why that would be?

    Thanks in advance!
