Qt5 Settings in Linux Mint 21.2 doesn't work for Strawberry anymore because Strawberry is built with Qt 6. See this in the wiki:

https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/FAQ#Strawberry_does_not_respect_Qt_style,_KDE_theme_or_icons_on_Linux.

I tried to compile the qt6ct utility mentioned there, but my version of Mint did not meet the required dependencies. But I'm a relative newbie to Linux so maybe I missed something.

I don't think there is currently a version of Strawberry available with Qt 5.

@jonas still a bug on 1.0.21 from Manjaro community repo qt version 5.15.11

I use easymp3gain which is built with QT

Hi, now I tried to activate Pulse and then choose "Output to a sound card via ALSA" in Strawberry and under "Device": "Automatically select" instead of the name of my sound card.

Now audio seems to work simultaniously in firefox and strawberry.

But pulse is active. Is that a problem for sound quality despite the fact that I have chosen "Output.... ALSA" in Strawberry?

@jonas thanks a lot!! yeah gst-play does indeed not play them. i’m gonna find the right people to report this issue to. thank you very much, you saved me a bunch of headaches here 🙂

also i made it work by simply removing the sndio package, that was a very helpful hint.

@sebcarp
The phone should not be mounted when connecting it in strawberry as the MTP protocol is used.

@ben2talk well, Cantarell regular is pretty legible, but i've got you point. It has to be implemented in the player itself, but currently it don't.
Breaking all of the system look is not an option.

Fusion is part of Qt and the default style in Qt, nothing specific to Strawberry. For any application which doesn't have a setting to change style you can still set this by using the QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE environment variable.
But maybe you didn't have this issue with Clementine because you either used a different style, or there is a bug in the newer versions of Qt. The latest release of Clementine is still using Qt 4 (although you can build Clementine with Qt 5 with the latest source code from git). While Strawberry is Qt 6, but still compatible with Qt 5. Qt 5 is more or less end of life from Qt for open source use, the Qt company have closed the Qt 5 branches.

@wolfie No, there's no portable version of Strawberry at the moment, at least no for Windows. You can post this on the Feature Suggestions category, since is not a current feature.

@jonas Thanks for your reply ! i will try and report it.

@DougB
You were missing libicu-dev, the dependency was added a while back.
