I use rsync and back up my entire home directory to two external hard drives.

I have fixed the Issue, it seems it was a problem with the .desktop file located in
/var/lib/flatpak/app/org.strawberrymusicplayer.strawberry/x86_64/stable/fe501a8f671451ccb6eeb6f26f144b25c43ee460b69b92d4d3895ceb7337adcc/export/share/applications/org.strawberrymusicplayer.strawberry.desktop
All I had to do was replace the Exec line with Exec=flatpak run org.strawberrymusicplayer.strawberry
No idea if changing it from the default will have any negative effects, but I now have Album Art in the media controls when launched from the Application overview in Gnome.

+2 on this question. I can't see any behavior difference but playing the first N seconds or a random preview of tracks would be a great feature. That seems like what this was meant to be.

I can confirm that this issue is still ongoing; after a PC restart, strawberry started back up in Spanish.

@jonas , indeed. I built recent gst-plugins-rs with librespot 0.7 and the issue has gone.
Thank you.

@trincowski I'll correct it. This seems like a bug with strawberry since it is considering things it should not be. I would really like if it only obeyed the sync options used.

It is working now. I had changed some settings on the scrobblers and misunderstood the settings I was changing.

I thought a local file would scribble anything on my hard drive. Apparently, it only scrobbles files I play that are not in my collection. I never do this with Strawberry, and it was the only one selected. I turned on Collection and turned off Local Files.

@olem Could you explain it better, please? I don't get what you're trying to do.

@frostypaw
Not as far as I know - But I would also love tat feature!

Switched the style to Fusion, looks great now.

See? If you just don't respond they'll solve their own problems.

Okay, well, I think I've made some config tweaks that have helped the SMB performance. The full collection rescan still takes forever, but it always did and that's expected. The update changed, however, is now as fast as it was on linux. That was the important one.

@jonas Many thanks. That is it.

The modification time of the files was being changed. However, the that of the directory under which they sat was not being updated. A "touch" of that directory, and then "Update Changed Collection Folders" works perfectly.

Thanks again.

In settings / Backend. Try setting output to WASAPI instead.

@jonaski said in Resume Playback On Start:

The resume playback on start should work if you close Strawberry while a song is playing, then reopen Strawberry.
I'm not sure if it would work on system startup.

I know this thread is old but i have this same issue. In my mind turning off the computer is closing the app while a song is playing so why when its in the startup and reopens it doesn't play .. its weird logic .. oddly enough i got it working in clementine but only in mint cinnamon , in xfce it did nothing. also weird tho is it will work when you log out and log back in which again in my mind is the same as turning the PC off and on .. i dunno , i would love to use this app but i need the music to start when i turn on my PC so its janky clementine or quad libet for me.

odd this issues doesn't come up more or hasn't been addressed ever.
