@jonas mp3, flac

I also noticed today that if I click "edit track information", the comment under "Tags" is the one I entered. But if I see the comment under the Playlist, its a different one. Once I click the track, the comment I entered appears, once the track changes, I get another comment (either blank or one not made by me). Seems like the tag is reading a comment from 2 different sources.

The comment that appears not entered by me, I dont know where its coming from, its not under any tag under "edit track information"

I am going to install mp3tag to check where it might be coming from.

I can't reproduce this issue, I've tested with 2 different DACs on 2 different computers.
As I suggested earlier, try temporarily deactivating PipeWire and PulseAudio and set output to ALSA.
Other gstreamer based players might work because they lower the audio quality and or resample the sample rate using audioresample.

@niko
Please see this thread.

@shilmaz
You are missing a gstreamer plugin called bs2b, part of gstreamer bad. Install that or uncheck "Improve headphone listening of stereo audio records" in the backend settings.

@jonas Perhaps you should consider including that information and also indicating which version each system is no longer supported on.

Does gst-inspect-1.0 libav | grep ape show Monkey's Audio decoder?
Does the file play using gst-launch-1.0?
Did you try to clear the gstreamer plugin cache? Delete ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/registry.x86_64.bin

@jonas Thanks. That's what I figured. I never liked that anyway. I say "played" is actually played not sorta played. 🙂

@jonas
No logs were created when closed.... and now it works just fine.
I don't get it. For weeks this has had an issue, then you reply to my post and then it magically works.

Thank you for your help.

Solved:

With this the connection from strawberrymusic-player and calfeffects are stable.

@jonas Found this website that help me resolve my issue.

Simple fix. I hope this helps someone else who is having similar issues.

@ben2talk
The pre-loading starts 5 seconds before the end of the track, if you seek after that, it's not enough time to buffer the next track to make it gap-less.

@Cooker_8872
The settings were removed in 1.0.12. So you would have to downgrade to 1.0.11.

But maybe the workaround using qt6ct works for you too.

@jonas thank you! A fantastic reply. I went for adding the backports and, as you thought, strawberry is available as a result.
All installed and ready to go. Thanks again.

@jonas Yes i tested the last buid on another computer where i don't deleted the db and it is working also
