@jonas said in Library support for DSF files:

However we lack contributors so I'm not keen on adding it back and maintain the code outside of taglib as I have limited knowledge of the format

Yeah, that's fair. Disappointing, but understandable. My quest for how to best integrate my highest quality music into my music library continues. 🙂

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

@golfprofred Glad, I could help.

@failafail
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Strawberry_(Software) suggests that Clementine collects data, that's wrong.

@Cooker_8872
The settings were removed in 1.0.12. So you would have to downgrade to 1.0.11.

But maybe the workaround using qt6ct works for you too.

@jonas I understand that moving a song within the same music collection directory means renaming it and/or moving it between several possible subfolders of the main folder. It's right ?

A debug package will be needed to produce a useful backtrace. (Regular Arch packages have the symbols stripped out).

@scubaboyc said in MP3 Player suggestion?:

Good Evening,
I'm thinking of purchasing the below MP3 player.
It's Android based and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with it.
What I wanted to know was if I'm running Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon, will my computer be able to see it and will I be able to generate playlists and add them to it via Strawberry?
If not, does anyone have any suggestion?
Thanks,

Hello! Compatibility with Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon for the Android MP3 player may vary. Check the device specifications and seek community advice. Ensure Strawberry supports file transfer to the player.

@jonas Not on the list. I disabled pulse so not sure if that's a problem.

@peter
It should be available

After some thought I've decided to switch to a different Windows player (MusicBee). I feel it will have better support (well it hasn't been updated in a while so we'll see) and has more of the features I want.

I used to be an Linux user and I'm happy that these user have a quality player (Strawberry) they can use. I wish you all the best.

@jonas compiled the latest version, definitely works now, thank you very much!

@jonas StopForumSpam is very good but not sure it around anymore but here is website https://www.stopforumspam.com/

@jonas Ah,thanks. My problem is solved as well now. Installing the Qt TLS Plugin again makes Strawberry scrobble again. Now, I can ditch Rhythmbox again!

@msrex I checked this now. I see that there is a bug, not updating the song when disc is changed, but I see it's correctly updating when title and track is changed.
But I don't know if that bug could explain what you saw happening, it could happen if the song was ripped while strawberry was running, and disc was updated after the song was initially read from disc.
If you manually tagged the disc later, or the ripping program tagged it later.
If you see way to still reproduce the bug without updating the disc, I'd like to know so I can fix it.

@leo
Can you try the latest (currently 1.2.3-43) from https://builds.strawberrymusicplayer.org/debian/trixie/ and see if it fixes this crash.

@MrDowntempo Personally what I like about strawberry is that it just works. Foobar is too much work to setup for a casual user to make it look good and make it functional!

+1 for this

Wow! That's what I call service! Thank you!
Just tested lyrics with m4a files and the tag editing now works!
I also tested with an ALAC (Apple Lossless) file, which, confusingly (to me, anyway!) is also m4a. It works on that also!

This is great news. For what it's worth, I think that full compatibility with Apple sourced files is important if you want to develop Strawberry for the Mac platform. While I don't have any real evidence, I think a lot of audiophiles own Macs. I used to read Stereophile magazine, and they were always mentioning their Macs when the subject of computers in audio came up.

To this day, iTunes will not play FLAC files, so Mac users that use iTunes will most likely use ALAC, or lossy AAC. iTunes default decoding is 256 kbps AAC, and that is also what you get if you purchase music from Apple.

On a side note, there is a lot of dissatisfaction with Apple these days, even with long time users. I love my iMac, but I am using Linux more and more. It is wonderful that my iTunes collection works well with a player like Strawberry. For Mac expatriates moving to Linux, Strawberry could be a good fit. It could also be a nice alternative to iTunes on the Mac platform.

Cheers
