Yes, that will work as long as the collection directory is the same, or at least a symblic link, you can find the database location here: https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Database_integrity_checkhttps://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Database_integrity_check

@msrex I checked this now. I see that there is a bug, not updating the song when disc is changed, but I see it's correctly updating when title and track is changed.
But I don't know if that bug could explain what you saw happening, it could happen if the song was ripped while strawberry was running, and disc was updated after the song was initially read from disc.
If you manually tagged the disc later, or the ripping program tagged it later.
If you see way to still reproduce the bug without updating the disc, I'd like to know so I can fix it.

@jonas said in Incomplete library:

find ~ -type f ( -iname 'strawberry.db' -or -iname '*strawberry.plist' ) 2>/dev/null

Thank you very much! It worked.

@Psimon
I suggest to report the issue here: https://github.com/flathub/org.strawberrymusicplayer.strawberry/issues

@koko this seems to no longer work, as sign ins get blocked.

I ran Fiddler again, and this time got a thing called x-tidal-token that I figured must be the right thing. However, I entered it along with my uname and password, and it spits out failure to authenticate. I can only assume I'm doing something wrong... ?

@jonas Thanks,

Is there any way to fix two database entries for the same track?

@ashley194 said in Strawberry & Easytag:

a day ago

Hi all, 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!

Open a terminal.
Execute

xdg-open .

to see if it opens Dolphin. If not, you might need to fix the association. Sometimes xdg-open might be pointing to the wrong application. If xdg-open is opening files with the wrong application, you can fix this by adjusting your MIME type associations or setting the correct default application for handling specific types of files.

EXAMPLES

For Directories (typically handled by file managers like Dolphin):

xdg-mime default dolphin.desktop inode/directory

or, i.e. For Text Files:

xdg-mime default kate.desktop text/plain

or, For PDF Files:

xdg-mime default okular.desktop application/pdf

the query mistekko sent is very useful to debug which default application is set for opening folders, which is the case. The first command I sent is useful to actually test if the problem lies in Strawberry or system-wide.

@jonas Ah,thanks. My problem is solved as well now. Installing the Qt TLS Plugin again makes Strawberry scrobble again. Now, I can ditch Rhythmbox again!

@jonas
Ok and thanks for the hint.
However, it is irritating that the CMakeCache.txt file contains the following text in the preamble:

# This is the CMakeCache file. # For build in directory: /Users/user/Bastelbude/strawberry/build # It was generated by CMake: /opt/strawberry_macos_arm64_release/bin/cmake # You can edit this file to change values found and used by cmake. # If you do not want to change any of the values, simply exit the editor. # If you do want to change a value, simply edit, save, and exit the editor. # The syntax for the file is as follows: # KEY:TYPE=VALUE # KEY is the name of a variable in the cache. # TYPE is a hint to GUIs for the type of VALUE, DO NOT EDIT TYPE!. # VALUE is the current value for the KEY.

(Note: The file now comes from the build for the ARM architecture - that's where I successfully performed my hack).

By adding the line to the CMake command, you are referring to the “Configure build” step in https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Build_macOS, where the expression can then be added. If this is correct, I will then adapt or revise my first post.

@jonas I tested it with U2's Achtung baby 30th anniversary album, which is only available in hi-res format.

I've been testing over night and this bug looks to be fixed with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/7401 which has also been merged in GStreamer, but it missed 1.24.7 so that version is still affected.
For openSUSE I've opened a request to add it here: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1195264
And I've opened a bug report in Arch here: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/gst-plugins-base/-/issues/2 and asked if they can add the patch.
For other Linux distros affected by this bug ask them if they can add the patch.
You can possibly also bypass the bug by enabling cross-fading automatic (and uncheck the Except between tracks on the same album checkbox) in the backend settings of strawberry.

@jonas Oh, btw! I forgot. There’s an Android scrobbler called Pano Scrobbler that manages to send feedback without any MBIDs on the metadata (it works using my own tracks). I wonder how they do that. 🤔

It looks like the client searches for the MBIDs when not present. See lines 158-159 here:

https://github.com/kawaiiDango/pano-scrobbler/blob/main/app/src/main/java/com/arn/scrobble/api/listenbrainz/ListenBrainz.kt

I’m not sure, though. But maybe that method could be used by Strawberry? 👀

@jonas Oh wow, didn’t even take that into account. Rolling now. Nice! Thank you.
