@herculepirate Part of that will depend on where you have your actual music files stored. In Mint the database files are located in ~/.local/share/strawberry/strawberry and the configuration in ~/.config/strawberry. As long as the music files themselves are stored in the same location on the Suse computer (typically in $HOME/Music), you should be able to just drop those directories in your new home directory.

How big is your library? That seems like an insanely long time to read generate the database. I have around 4k albums and it takes less than an hour to do a full rescan.

Never mind, it is my fault.
I have Ransomware Protection activated and forgot to configure it for Strawberry

I recently switched to the Trinity Desktop and experienced this too. It's the native desktop notifications through DBus that fails.
I set the timeout to 1 seconds for the connection. Fixed here: https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/commit/72ff502e0f70b0db75858ef7cf414eed189d075e

@zoof I had the same issue. You can change [Behaviour] startupbehaviour to 2, for example. Here are the possible values:

enum StartupBehaviour { Startup_Remember = 1, Startup_Show = 2, Startup_Hide = 3, Startup_ShowMaximized = 4, Startup_ShowMinimized = 5, };

I'm aware of the issue. The shuffle mode is somewhat broken.
Bug report here: https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/issues/707
I will look more into it at some point.

Oh my god, how did I not spot that !!

D'oh !!
Sorry !!
I've always had it on "repeat playlist", I just restored my original .config/strawberry folder, and sure enough "stop after each track" was selected.

So sorry for wasting your time !

@keyboardcowboy
OSS is not used anymore, it is just an emulation to ALSA.
I don't know about Pipewire, I have never used it before, I think you get better answer from Pipewire directly.

@jonas
gstreamer 1.20.3 on Arch Linux

@steamtunnel
Should work in version 1.0.6

@peterb

Yes, this worked! Thanks!

Also, i believe it imported correctly the "bad" songs 🙂

@zapf2000 Worked for me (with the first secret as Raf-G), thank you so much !

Found this through Google and I've got a solution, as I also have all my music sorted in folders. What you need is mp3tag, and then you need to do this;

Select 'action' at the top. Make a new action. Set the values; Action type: Guess values Source format: %_folderpath% Guessing pattern: %dummy%\%dummy%\%albumartist%\%dummy%

Now the 'albumartist' tag is all set according to whatever the folder name is from 2 levels in. My music is all in F:\Music, so one level down is where all the artist folders are.

Once the group is done, just load your whole music folder, select action at the top again and click on the group you've just made. It'll take a while depending on how big it is. Once done, don't forget to click the blue save icon on the top left to make the changes permanent.

@jonas Thanks, I'll look into that.

@jonas Thank you! This was the root of the issue and not related to Strawberry at all. For an unknown reason a QtGui update was not compiled with jpeg support. Weird!

Is there a way on this forum to mark a solution? Thanks again.

+1, this is also useful with certain kinds of crappy hardware and sound backends
