@KillerKomodoOhNo said in What Do You Listen To?:

What type of music do you listen to on Strawberry?

I've ripped some CDs n downloaded some songs (shout-out to Nicotine+) of music I come across and I'm curious as to what the rest of the community listens to. I primarily seek out Jazz, Library, and Progressive Rock , but I listen to and enjoy all genres. Oh, I'm also using SMP on the Steam Deck, via the Discover store. This is my first exposure to Linux, but since the first day I got the Deck I've been using the Desktop mode and happened upon SMP, using it almost daily.

Collection (No pretty way to do this?)

I think it was easier to show via files rather than SMP, but folders without albums have the artists' work within subfolders. Currently at 119.8 gigs worth of music, mostly .flac and ever expanding.

@hahahahanothing I was mad searching for an answer to this problem. You helped me a lot. I was searching for a problem with Strawberry this is why I was not finding anything. Thanks

@CherryStraw ok. i forgot that's how you change it.

@Sharky-PI TagLib can read any tags. It's easy to do

@StrawberryAR
You need to add the folders to the collection in Settings / Collection. And make sure "Monitor the collection for changes" is checked.

Transparency isn't supported for custom background images.

@jonas any thoughts about this, chap?

@HanifMZ
I had to remove it since Genius changed their web pages, many times it was showing only partially lyrics, and Genius keeps changing their web pages, continuously breaking the lyrics parsing. It's also pretty messy to parse HTML instead of using an API.
It's not possible to get full lyrics from the Genius API, and their search is also very bad, so I finally just decided to just remove it.

@friTTe
What OS and version of Strawberry is this?

I'm aware of an issue with the playlist row colors on Windows using the windows11 style. You can change the style in Settings / Apperance / Style, set the style to windowsvista, or turn of the alternating row colors like already suggested.

I'm still getting the buffering issue.

@jonas
thank you, I have been able to set Strawberry as the default app to open the link and it is now working.
Many thanks

Just looking at one of my FLAC files and its metadata, tagged by SongKong (pulling from MusicBrainz), I see the following pertaining to dates:

<ALBUM_YEAR>1997</ALBUM_YEAR>
<ORIGINALRELEASEDATE>1997</ORIGINALRELEASEDATE>
<Recorded_Date>1997</Recorded_Date>
