@jonas said in How to enable the equalizer on Linux Mint?:

@metagross31
The equalizer is only available with gstreamer, either you compiled strawberry without gstreamer, or selected VLC instead of gstreamer in the backend settings.

That was the problem! I installed the gstreamer backend and rebuilt Strawberry and now it works. Thanks a lot!

Tried with all the methods available on the "settings" section but still I'm not able to play music 😞

I use the "Qt5 Configuration Tool", which I think you can install in Debian, to adjust the font size and collection folder icon theme. Perhaps that's something you could try.

I am using Linux Mint and the tool works well for tweaking non-GTK apps.

I dont know what this playing widget feature is, as I see no difference (even while playing) no matter if its activated or not, but even with it deactivated adding the PlayingWidget section and setting the above_status_bar key in strawberry.conf stretches the seekbar to the whole width as desired, so many thanks for your hint.

@rnd
Version 1.0.2 is released which should hopefully fix the bug.

I found this:
https://support.apple.com/guide/itunes/save-a-copy-of-your-playlists-itns2998/windows#:~:text=Save a copy of a,File > Library > Export Library.

Possible reasons songs are not picked up could be hidden folders, incorrect permissions or unsupported audio format.
Check and see if there are some differences between those that are not picked up and those that appear in the collection.
When you find a file that is not in the collection try dragging the file from finder to the playlist window and see if you get an error message.

@orinovet
libre.fm uses a identical API, even the API key is the same. So all that needs to be done is to add a combobox where you can select between last.fm and libre.fm and it uses different config depending on which one you select, I think it's just the hostname and username that is different.
The code is here:
https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/blob/master/src/dialogs/lastfmimportdialog.cpp
https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/blob/master/src/scrobbler/lastfmimport.cpp

@fatso AWESOME! Thank you so much. I'm a total newb with this streaming stuff...can ya tell? LOL

@hamaryns No, I think so. You must put the folder of your music directly in the Collection section, not just a direct access.

It calculates and stores a unique fingerprint for each song in the database so that if the files are renamed or moved on disk (within the collection directory) it manage to track where the files moves so it does not loose playcounts and ratings data.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_fingerprint

@lvsunz37
You can't install in a different profile. You can create a backup of the database, the file containing the data is strawberry.db

@craiguk
No, strawberry does not set icon for filetypes. Icons for mimetypes are loaded from /usr/share/icons/ there is usually subfolders called mimetypes.

@buffalo that's very kind, thank you very much! Have a nice day!

Confirmed, @silver-sun!

Local lyrics display correctly in the "Context" pane, so the problem is limited to fetching lyrics.
