I'm no expert, but you'd probably need the rest of your equipment and software (at least until the signal is turned to analog) to support it, and even then it's doubtful there will be any difference (https://www.makeuseof.com/16-bit-vs-24-bit-audio/).

@jonas I understand that moving a song within the same music collection directory means renaming it and/or moving it between several possible subfolders of the main folder. It's right ?

@failafail https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Strawberry_(Software) suggests that Clementine collects data, that's wrong.

@BerryKing I've fixed this now.

@dhinaghena Hello, almost all previous versions of the program are available on GitHub, but I have not been able to see which version would be correct either. I also don't understand why developers don't take into account those who can't or don't want to update. One thing is that due to the changes that occur over time and the different libraries and functions used, they are forced to raise requirements. That's right. But if there are fully functional previous versions, which are also available to users, as in this case (fantastic, it is one of the best reasons to use these programs), the logical thing to do is to indicate both on the download page and in the version notes. when those changes happen. What's more, those notes include thousands of notes that developers love and understand, but not the common user. But nothing in relation to the actual use of the program. And the first step is that: indicate the requirements and when they change.

@Gemini62167 Thank you for bothering in writing such a long post about this Apple theme. I'm sad too about the fact things changed for worst since the decease of Steve Jobs; I always knew Tim Cook was making a deplorable job as the new CEO (Remember that iPhone X presentation for the 10th anniversay of the original iPhone which was more a spit to the face of the user than a real tribute to the original phone?) but I didn't knew things were this messed. Looks like you know Apple more than me so I don't have too much to add as a feedback, so I'll thank you again for writing all this for me, and for the rest of the people who's reading in this thread. And thanks to Jonas for doing such an excellent Music Player, even for Mac users; I think Mac users needs a hero since the most recent OS systems doesn't have iTunes anymore and the number of music players is low.

@viaprenestina Maybe this topic might help you.

@Miguel-Ruiz Clementine is not URL encoding / decoding the file paths according to the specifications. Clementine is doing it wrong, and is probably unable to load the playlists saved by strawberry for this reason, since Strawberry URL encodes some characters. Another difference is that Clementine is saving metadata. For Strawberry, there is a setting for enabling saving playlists with metadata, in the settings, under playlist. If you enable that setting it will save metadata like Clementine does.

@remelach I've added lyrics from stands4 (lyrics.com) now if you want to test you can try the latest from https://builds.strawberrymusicplayer.org/

@scubaboyc See https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/issues/1092 I suggest "touch" a file name, then you can overwrite it.

@jonas Switching to Alsa fixed it. Thanks.

@buffalo thank you

I just added an old playlist - and got flooded with error windows that mean't I had to physically kill everything. Very nasty...

Thank you so much

@sebastjava My understanding is that the fee isn't very big, but I will look more into it. Thanks for the donation.

@sebastjava I am using the mute on the Strawberry icon on my toolbar. I think I saw someone else post about this same issue. The skip doesn't happen here with a 10-second mute. I have to have it on mute for a few minutes at least. When it skips it sounds like it is playing the track very fast. It's unintelligible noise. Sometimes it skips only a short time and others it skips all the way to the end of the track. I can reproduce it at will. As far as I can recall, Strawberry has always done this on my system. While playing with mute I noticed that it does not mute right away. Sometimes it takes 10 seconds or more for the sound to stop. I don't know why I never noticed that before. I turned off the analyzer and played with mute some more. Sometimes when I mute the sound would stop right away and the slider at the bottom of the screen would stop moving. No way to tell if it was playing since it was muted. After I unmuted it didn't start playing again so I click the stop button and then play and it started to play again. Later I repeated the process but this time I went to do something else and after a short time It started playing. This is that big of a deal. I have been living with it since I started using Strawberry. I and the other person that mentioned the skipping may be the only people using the mute switch. Fedora Linux release 34 Mate Desktop.
