Migration from opensuse

@philippeg Nobody has an idea ?

To answer your questions is way above my pay grade, but I am wondering if all your flac files have proper tags (metadata).
If you have not already done so, check to see if the files are available through the "Files" source, as opposed to the "Collection". If they are, I would guess that the problem lies with the "Collection" scanning process. But I have no idea as to why.
As to the dark theme problem, I don't use dark themes, but I tested my system by going to System Settings>Themes, and selected (Window Borders = Mint-Y-Dark) (Controls = Mint-Y-Dark-Blue) and (Desktop = Mint-Y-Dark-Blue), and Strawberry switched to a dark theme. I am still on Mint 19.3 (soon to reach EOL) but it works there. Perhaps you are using a third party theme?
Anyway, that's all I can offer. It sounds like your knowledge of Linux is far deeper than mine, but I figured I'd chime in. Hope you get it sorted!

Yes they are and it is working with the 1.0.11 version the 1.0.0 all the others music players but not the 1.0.14 version; i did not test the medium versions ; i think it is relatied the the scanning process but i am not a dev to seek from where the problem come from; something has been changed between these versions for sure ...
Concerning , the dark theme, i am not the only one who has the problem with the last version ....whatever the distribution ....depending of the last linux version or the last Strawberry version i don't know ..Some thing it is related to QT but i am not a dev and I think that only the devs or Strawberry can solve the issues. -
@philippeg Maybe something with Qt6 then. On my older system I am limited to Qt5. I will be upgrading to Mint 20 or 21 soon. Will be interesting to see if I have any issues with that.
-
@philippeg just done a test; on the same version of linux Minut i installed plasma ( kde ) destop ....then when i disconnect and reconnect with plasma i have the Dark theme
-
@philippeg ok no hope for a solution with Strawberry ? I am not a dev but it seems to me like a bug ( the searching part ..)
-
@philippeg https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=379749 seems need qt6
-
@philippeg Who can answer to this issue ? It is clearly a bug , two if we need GT6 for the dark theme matter and the distribution don't allow it ...The most important bug is the one that does not allow to find all the songs during the search in my library, I cannot stay on version 1.0.11 forever and this calls into question the use of the tool
-
There are no changes to the collection watcher/scanner between version 1.0.11 and 1.0.14. But there was a big change to the collection model and query in version 1.0.13, it's the only thing that could explain changes to what songs are shown in the collection, or on search. But I don't see anything wrong, and strangely no-one else has reported similar problems.
I'm guessing the song is still in the database, but not shown in the collection.
On the collection toolbutton settings, is "Entire Collection" selected in "Show"?
What "Group by" do you have set?
If you query the database manually, does the song show up?
In tools / Console, enter:select * from songs where title like '%example%';
If possible, could you send me the entire strawberry.db file and a list of what songs are missing? That would be the easiest way for me to debug this, as I can't reproduce any issues here. -
@jonas hI,
The of the db under the 1.0.11 is the double of the size under 1.0.14 .. i now for sure some folders of flac recors that miss under the 14, but not all ; i can send you the db under 1.0.11 and the db under 1.0.14 but a practical question hors i send to you theses informations ? -
@jonas Maybe I'm confusing the issue, but it seems that this issue https://forum.strawberrymusicplayer.org/topic/963/collection-search-not-always-working/3?_=1676367650199 which I reported is similar?

@philippeg
If the songs disappear from disk, they are normally marked unavailable, not immediately removed from database, unless you have unchecked that option in the settings. So I can't explain why the size decreased. Did you run an integrity check of the DB? https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Database_integrity_checkI suggest to check if the song is in the database and not marked unavailable, if it's not in the database, or marked unavailable, than the problem isn't the model/query, but elsewhere.
See: https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Accessing_the_databaseselect url, unavailable from songs where title like '%example%';Replace "example" with something in the song title that would match the song you are looking for. Or replace title with album to check for a specific album.

@rajm
I don't know. Can you also manually query the DB and see if the songs are there or not. -
@rajm no i don't think so .. i have all teh checks and it is all good .. and i can access with the 1.0.11 version
-
@jonas a bit complicated for me i am not a dev at all
-
@jonas you proposed i sent you the db and informations on records missing and my question was how i am dooing that , sending you these informations ?
-
@jonas I just did the following test: I generated the database with 1.0.11; I have all my recordings; I used exactly the same base but with 1.0.14 and there I am missing records...
-
@philippeg
You can put the file in dropbox or a similar service and send me the link in private message here. -
@jonas In my case I think it's something to do with the grouping, I've set it to group by album and nothing is shown, if I change it to group by Album artist/Album tracks appear - I notice you ask about group settings above, am I misunderstanding the function of this setting?

Is this possibly same as https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/issues/1140
