But the volume slider is directly connected to the application volume control so adjusting it on there adjusts the volume slider and vice versa. There is no other point on the chain besides those two. (I'm using pipewire for context)

The played track history (clicking previous track button) will reset if you stop playback, or do you mean it's resetting while still playing?

Might be some space or different characters in the name.
Try Tools / Console and enter:

SELECT distinct albumartist, artist, album from songs where artist like '%ventures%';

See if all the albums under The Ventures shows up, and check if there is a difference in naming, ie.: if there is a space before | album.

They need to be part of a collection in order to be included in the DB structure. That DB is where many different fields are added, such as the play count.

  1. Often need to stop a track and start it to trigger lyric search - sadly you can't trigger this another way.
  2. Lyrics don't automatically save to the track - meaning they often need to be copied, open the track for editing and paste them in.

Being able to rename tracks and directories without affecting the internal playlists saves so much time that I couldn't resist sending a big thank you to Jonas and the collaborators at the upper flats.

And, since there must be more grateful users in this forum, I thought I'd send an open invitation with the title of this thread.

Long live Strawberry!

Darn, I had missed the existing "Thank you!" thread.

Let this die and jump to https://forum.strawberrymusicplayer.org/topic/133/thank-you

My excuses.

I love using a dynamic smart playlist that chooses from all of my songs to shuffle, but there are certain tracks by certain artists that really just need to have certain songs come after or a certain intro before they play (basically all of Pink Floyd, but honestly a lot of my artists could use this in my opinion).

For example, a famous example is Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2. It works by itself but when it's played on the radio, it plays the song before as an intro. Could I have a rule that says "any time 'Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2' gets chosen, play 'Happiest Days of our Lives' before" and "anytime 'Happiest Days of our Lives' gets chosen, play 'Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2' after"?

I would seriously use this so much if it is possible.

Baffled how that isn't there by now. Yes, there are workarounds, but it should be part of the app.

i really don't like this change, it honestly feels like they're intentionally screwing us over for using windows (even though i use both windows and linux, it still feels like they are dogpiling on all of us)
i just hope they lift it soon.

@Eddie_Spectral said in Pay for the newest verison?:

@jonas You cry for no contributions but then you make a year/monthly suscription. WTF? Put a mandatory single payment, man!!

Fellas there are multiple repos out there offerings the macos and windows versions for free. It is also relatively simple to copy the repo and use github to build them yourself if you so choose. There is no need to be rude to jonas.

I was fighting with all the "!=" and the suggestions in the pop-up tip, but actually they don't always work. e.g. "year:!=2" didnt work to filter out year 2xxx where "year:-2" does. I hadn't even thought to use the "-" minus sign, but it turns out to be far superior. Also the $ does nothing as far as I can tell there are no wild cards.

"genre:rock -hard -indie -pop -art comment:-amazon year:-20"

basically gives me all the "rock" genre with any "hard rock", "indie rock", "pop rock", and "art rock" filtered out, while also filtering out anything with "amazon" in the comment and sticking to 19xx for the year.
