@jonas said in v 1.0.23 application launch fault "ucrtbase.dll" on Windows 11 64-bit: The other alternative is to install version 1.0.4 (https://files.strawberrymusicplayer.org/StrawberrySetup-1.0.4-msvc-x64.exe) first, start strawberry once and exit, this will upgrade the database schema to a supported version, then install the latest version (1.0.23) again. I choose this path to maintain the db contents going forward. Everything went flawlessly, and v1.0.23 now up and running! Cheers

@jonas Please how can I remove this? Or at least can you put an option into "Appearance" to toggle this feature? Thanks

@jonas Good news: today gstreamer1-1.24.4-1 was rolled out by the Fedora Team and everything works fine now on my good old Lenovo M58 So you were right: the error was in gstreamer and not in Strawberry! Thank you for your excellent work!

@jonas Thanks! Great to be rid of this. A minor irritation in theory, but these things get to me more than they really should do.

@jonas Yes, I have enabled Save play counts to song tags. Thanks. I'll wait for the update to work its way into the repository. I just got 1.2.4.

@jonas I know this is an old thread, but I just installed KDE connect on Linux Mint and Android, and it works perfect for what I need. I have control of pause, play, fast-forward or reverse, previous or next song and shuffle on or off. That is all I need. Thanks, Gerry

Sorry @jonas, missed the notification that there's activity here. Just tested https://builds.strawberrymusicplayer.org/macos/bigsur/strawberry-0.8.4.28.gfcd4e5ac-bigsur.dmg and it seems to work. Thanks!

@Hompacko Thanks

@adityasubathu The transfer rate from the NAS to the computer is 11 mb/sec The (Dell) laptop has an SSD, is an i5 and has 16Gb RAM Since Friday its been "Updating collection" Running from a terminal window, it gets to 84850 and then stops. JRiver shows there are 86998 tracks I can play a track if I click on the file name, but cannot create any Smart Playlists Don't want to keep bothering you with what seems minor problems

@jonas I can confirm that version: 0.8.5.158.g5256d795-Qt6-x64 is unaffected and the library scan works normally! Thank you for your work and the quick fix!

@silver-sun Thanks for the reply. I've already tried that option but it didn't do the job about the EBU. By the way, I keep it unchecked because Strawberry becomes unresponsive for 1-2 seconds when it detects changes and begins to scan. I'm also using the replay gain (often using the "Ex Falso" app to scan mp3s and write the replay gain tags), I just wanted to test the EBU R 128 feature out of curiosity.

Linux Mint 22 user here, also getting away from Rhythmbox. Using the GUI in Strawberry ver.1.2.3, here are some observations for using a streaming radio playlist, generally following @ben2talk . From a blank slate with no playlists loaded, add some streams using Playlist | Add Stream. You'll notice that the title populates with the URL. Click on a stream in the Title field. Here you can rename the stream to something more human using F2 or context click and select 'Edit tag "Title" ...' Now save the same playlist to someplace you can find them, saving these three formats: Christmas1.xspf (the default playlist suggested by Strawberry) Christmas2.pls Christmas3.m3u Open all 3 files in a text app and observe their structures. Of the 3, only Christmas2.pls properly saves the renaming changes done above. Neither the XSPF nor M3U files save the Title changes, and if you reopen those playlist types (with or without tagging them as starred Favorites), the URL repopulates the Title field and you have to do it all over again. The suggestions here for making changes to the M3U file work good to preserve your edits for that type of playlist. They may present differently in the GUI when compared to the sticky changes in the PLS file (you'll have to fiddle with the M3U #EXTINF and other directives to see what works best for you), but at least the work is preserved when you load the playlist. Again this all needs done by changing the M3U text file directly since the F2 GUI changes only stick for the PLS file. Strawberry's default XSPF is in structured XML and I haven't dug into manual solutions for that. As for direct modifications to the Radio tab offerings, if SQL is still the main Strawberry data backend (see @OriNOVet and this forum "Moving collection/config") there may be some opportunity. Christmas wish list to self: Dust off my rusty SQL and XML chops and look under the hood. +1 for SomaFM. Great stuff.

I've found an option I could change to make it easier to understand, now the options look like this: [image: 28a269da-6bc3-4ea2-980b-d5d02db20112-image.png] Anyone who has purchased a single version, I'm happy to give a reduced price for subscription, or a few months free. Anyone who has a problem with the price, I can offer discounts. Send me a private message on Patreon instead of complaining in a public forum.

Just tested and it seems to be working again in Linux Mint.

Strawberry will scan every single file in the directory you add to the collection independent of filetype, so make sure you don't have other files than music in the directory. But to get an idea of what it's doing it could be useful to run it from the terminal like already suggested.

@jonas It sounds like you are saying that the default settings of; Save album covers in album directory and use hash is broken in the case where files are not physically stored in album specific folders. If this is the case, then why bother to use a hash at all? I would have expected that whether using a hash or a pattern, whether stored in the album's (or more accurately file's) directory or located in a hidden directory in the user's home folder, that there is some database that associates a particular physical image file with a particular physical music file. To do otherwise creates a hidden trap for any user that may choose to store their music files in any structure other than limiting folders to only containing the files of a single album. If someone were to put all of their Goo Goo Dolls files in a folder, or all their songs from the 80's, or as I have done with some of my folders, just collections of completely unrelated music files then Strawberry's current implementation is unable to correctly handle the situation. thanks again for your work.

@jonas MusicBrainz Picard has an option to "Save AcoustID fingerprints to file tags". Will SMP read/use/benefit from those saved fingerprints, or will it generate its own fingerprint instead?

I have the same issue as mentioned above. The only lyrics that is showing are those from ChartLyrics. None of the others are working. It doesen´t matter if I untick and retick the boxes. And it doesent matter if I restart Strawberry.

Finally caught it while running with GST_DEBUG=5. This time, I had paused the track somewhat close to its end. Unfortunately, the logging is on the insane level, so I couldn't copy it all, and I don't even know if it has anything useful. Here is the last part of it, just in case: https://paste.c-net.org/PuritySidra

I've been testing over night and this bug looks to be fixed with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/7401 which has also been merged in GStreamer, but it missed 1.24.7 so that version is still affected. For openSUSE I've opened a request to add it here: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1195264 And I've opened a bug report in Arch here: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/gst-plugins-base/-/issues/2 and asked if they can add the patch. For other Linux distros affected by this bug ask them if they can add the patch. You can possibly also bypass the bug by enabling cross-fading automatic (and uncheck the Except between tracks on the same album checkbox) in the backend settings of strawberry.
