I would also love to see this feature. I was using Strawberry (and Clementine before that) years ago, and just recently discovered that it has subsonic support. However, the ability to stream via UPnP to my stereo would complete the experience. Currently there's only one subsonic client on Linux that can do that, and it doesn't always work very well.

For an "every thing but the kitchen sink..... well alright, the kitchen sink too" type app like Strawberry, it seems odd for this to be missing. (likely because UPnP is an absolute mess of a protocol, so understandable.... but you can do it... I believe in you)

Thanks!

On Linux Mint 22.2, there is Settings > User interface > Appearance > Style: gtk, which enables dark theme (I think I installed it via apt install strawberry instead of downloading deb file from website).

On Mint 21, there's no such option, I think I'll just wait until I need to upgrade this Mint installation. I'm avoiding the flatpak distribution since it's non-official.

Here is an example of what I mean, normally I'd expect it to show up with the file name instead.

@jonas
belatedly thanks.

@Sharky-PI Ah, yeah, I know about the spanner, thanks anyways! but if I change it to genre, then I'd have to change it to artist when I want to see artists, and so on.
I'll try the playlist workaround, seems like it could work. Thank you!

non-strawberry solution: if your playlists are in a central location (e.g. /Music/playlists/) then you could 'search within files / search file contents' using whatever OS-default search tool you have handy?

Now if you were feeling INCREDIBLY saucy, you could setup a cron job to

scan all your playlists create a database of songs [track URL] (rows) & playlists (columns), with cells filled by the playlist name; have a final column which concatenates all nonblank playlist columns, separated by semicolon Write that final column to the Performer tag of those files [manually/auto rescan collection in Strawberry then) search "performer:MyPlaylist" if you want the contents of the playlist in whichever Collection grouping scheme you've chosen (potentially useful/interesting), or (your main objective) search for the song and look in the tags for the performer, or display the performer tag as a column.

@apt1002 Left click shows / hides the program. If it doesn't, you have a bug in your system.

+1 thanks
