      Is it local files or streams? If local files, do you play them from the local HD, or remotely? And what audio format is it?

        It is local files. I never stream.

        They are played from an internal SATA hard drive.

        The audio format is MP3.

        I play MP3s using smart playlists 99% of the time. The only time I don't use a playlist is when I am playing something new and unrated.

        I have all three scrobblers enabled, along with the cover search, although I really don't need this, as I rarely look at a cover.

        Pretty much everything else is disabled, including the analyzer and mood bar, which I see as useless.

          @jonas Strawberry stopped playing again with the buffering set to 0ms.

            Try setting low watermark to 0.10 and buffer duration to 8000

              @jonas Done.

              I have it looping on a long play and running 24/7.

                This did not work. It stopped twice in the last 24 hours.

                  I just upgraded to Version 1.2.12. I'm waiting to see what happens now.

                    Strawberry stopped two times today, about 15 minutes apart.

                      Strawberry stopped three times in the last 24.

                      Could there be something connected with the playlist list causing this? It is a very large playlist.

                        It is still happening at random times.

                          @jonas, Strawberry, the 0% buffering issue persists. It stopped twice in the last hour. Previously, it ran for approximately 36 hours without issue.

                          I have switched from Fedora 40 to Linux Mint 22 LMDE, and I'm still experiencing the same issue. SO, it doesn't seem like the operating system is the problem.

                          I run Strawberry on this system 24/7. There is nothing in my logs that indicates anything related to Strawberry. The same thing happens when I start Strawberry with the --verbose option. It just stops. Clicking the stop button and then clicking the play button restarts playback on the same track it stopped on and is always successful. Play continues for a random number of tracks before it happens again.
