@jonas I was using Libre.fm during the no registrations period and the site was still usable and everything worked, it was really slow during that time period but got much much better when registrations were opened back up, I would love to see Libre.fm support brought back as well

@silver-sun thanks for the reply, my bad, I should have said that I only use GNU/Linux (I did not even know that Strawberry existed for Windows or Mac).
I don't have Qt6. I tried installing it and I got this:
sudo apt install qt6ct
[sudo] password for xxxxxx:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package qt6ct
also, my strawberry is flatpak, so there is that.
okay, thank you, you gave me somethign to work with! 🙂
Kind regards and all the best for 2026

@rlkeeney Thank you. I'll experiment with the 50 percent value. I actually haven't noticed any audible artifacts on my system. This is more out of curiosity, to see if I notice any difference.

@new_user
Playcounts and ratings only work for collection songs. The songs aren't linked to the collection for some reason indicated by the "folder" icon, the collection songs should have a vinyl icon. Maybe you dragged the songs from a file manager or the file tab before the folders were added to the collectiob? You need to re-add the songs from the left collection panel, then it should work.

@rlkeeney
If you look at the screenshot, the rating column is already there.

@trincowski I was going to mention that.

@jonas Thank you.

@mike_jones Try using Rating < 0.5 instead of Rating = 0 stars. I have found that Rating = 0 stars does not work for me.

What about gapless playback in fast-menu? Maybe with auto-detection!

@lynkiii Have you looked at https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Main_Page#Troubleshooting ?

Ok, so I used a hex editor to change the api key and secret, still bails at around the same point . I suppose the page pulls are too agressive.

Just wanted to set the record straight, I can't really pinpoint it, but I would point at changing icon theme for fixing the startup times? Maybe this doesn't make any sense, but it's but it's been as fast if not faster than Clementine.

Shoutout to the maintainers!

I also have to re-tag my whole connection because wrong sorting.
I used to use Album artist + date to sort my albums from years I was iTunes user. But many albums also came pre-tagged.
The way I currently tag my albums is by putting the date in the album name sort field.
Problem: the sort fields are grayed out for certain file types, such as .m4a, even though these are sometimes tagged for sorting.
This is very annoying for bands with foreign names that start with an article, such as “Les Négresses vertes”: it is possible to sort .mp3 albums as “Négresses vertes,” but .m4a albums remain as “Les Négresse vertes” even when the sort tag does exist in the files.
The problem when editing outside of Strawberry now is that changes are sometimes not taken into account, even after restarting Strawberry and the PC.
I am running Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon.

@dustinhuman Bump please
