@jonas Not sure I understand answer re: 2. I would either expect value 1-10 where value 3 would represent 1,5 stars and value 5 2,5 stars etc or 1-5 where 1,5 would represend 1,5 stars and 2,5 would represent 2,5 stars. But apparently this is not how this works.

Sadly I have no second software to verify the current values are read correctly.

@jonas ok, thanks!

Most likely something else is accessing the phone at the same time, or it is mounted.

DNS issue?

@snakefinger
Maybe something to do with your account.
Unfortunately errors when fetching lyrics is only logged to the console.
But you can probably see the error if you use the debug version available on https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/releases/tag/1.0.0
There is a console in the background where errors are shown.

@jonas
thanks for the reply. it is the same in clementine and may be a holdover from amarok

Run an integrity check on the DB:
https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/wiki/Database-integrity-check

To check if playlist songs are still there:

select * from playlist_items;

@jonas
It works now, thank you 🙂

@jonas
Yeah sorry I don't know anything on how those identification/fingreprinting works for music songs .... So total noob in this area. So is it like a checksum of a file then ?

And all those services have proprietary database then ? or proprietary algorithm to recognize the song?
And I guess shazam doesn't have any API for using their service for that?
So I guess by now you understood what I meant, it's the fact to be able to recognize the song and being able to add the metadata ....
I have some music, which are not that unknown or that for a niche public... and which are then not recognize by tfingerprinting analyzer, can I improve it in some way to make them more recognizable?
That's my ultimate question.

And about ifuse, it came knowledge to me with the pegasus program breach and the amnesty program to alleviate any malware or intrusion on iOS device
https://docs.mvt.re/en/latest/ios/install.html

as you can see there is a specific library there. That's where come ifuse from.
It simply mount the iOS filesystem and of course you have more or less access to things depending if the devices are rooted.
But as I said there are simply two folder to extract the files from. There are also the covers and the plist files. . So it could be useful maybe to merge them together? just an idea like that of course.

@jonas said in How to restore stats:

I plan to make a new release soon, there will be an option to turn on song fingerprinting and tracking to prevent losing playcounts and ratings.

The recent release (Version 1.0) still doesn't fix this issue.

@jonas
Works great, thanks!

I had to rescan my collection after removing the embedded covers.

@fenixfeniks Hi, I am new here & this is my first post.

@jonas Hi, I'm using dark theme on macOS Mojave 10.14.6 and yes, these stripes are very hard on eyes. Spend a lot of time to find where I can turn them off, then found this topic. But there is no option for this in "Playlist" section on mac version. Experimental build tells "You have macOS 10.14.6. The application requires macOS 10.15 or later." Please help, I don't want to go back to iTunes 😢

@mindwurx turns out my system was not mounting the drive with library at random thus causing problems as you mentioned
all good now
thanks
