@jonas confirming this is a bug in Strawberry. I have been using Clementine and this issue does not occur. It also does not occur with other media players. happy to help you further detect the bug

@jonas

Thanks. I removed the Flatpak, as it had a bug anyway (could not enable Moodbar at all).

Okay here is the output of

mp3check -ersv /home/geo/Music/Lost\ in\ a\ Myth/

Again huge text file

https://file.io/Jt2xS6zF5D1N

The output of the following command (I pasted it as a single command):

export GST_DEBUG=*:5
export GST_DEBUG_FILE=/tmp/strawberry-gstreamer-debug.log

Output from bash:

Here is the strawberry-gstreamer-debug.log. I had to stop the process before the behavior manifested at all (usually it starts doing it 4-5 songs in) as the file had reached 1.5 GB. If you know of a way to make the debug log less verbose so I can stop it when the behaviour actually manifests, let me know.

@jonas thank you for that.

It's interesting the first install was also flatpak, that was installed from the official arch repositories rather than flatpak. I wonder if they just use the flatpak for the repos?

How do I enable DEBUG at launch of Strawberry? This is the command to start the flatpak. How do I put the debug flag here?

usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=strawberry --file-forwarding org.strawberrymusicplayer.strawberry

Also, you may be right the mp3 files might have issues. However this is not an issue with other media players (previously with Clementine and in my Android phone with Musicolet) but in both my Desktop and my Laptop Strawberry behaves like that.

Below is the output of

mp3check -earsv

Sorry, the text file is enormous, I had to upload it somewhere

https://file.io/7p8DLkFCWVIy

or

https://ufile.io/fabpr2yn

But basically the output says

683 files checked, 683 erroneous files found
(663 anomalies found)

Some errors I saw in the output in multiple files:

• bitrate switching (192 -> 160)
• bitrate switching (160 -> 192)
• 191069 bytes of junk before first frame header
• anomaly: bitrate 320kbit/s
• anomaly: no crc
• anomaly: mode stereo

I am still looking for a solution for this. This did not use to happen with Clementine.

I uninstalled Strawberry from the official repositories and installed the Flatpak (1.0.23) and this keeps happening.

I constantly have issues with Strawberry (1.0.22) on Manjaro KDE Wayland.

Many times when a song starts about 10-20 seconds into the song the song starts playing from the beginning. Sometimes there are perfectly fine songs (in other media players) that 'crash' midway through playing (meaning Strawberry skips to the next song midway). I'm pasting below the log when this happened. This is happening in both my desktop and my laptop, both running Manjaro KDE Wayland and Strawberry 1.0.22 installed through Flatpak.

@ben2talk or simply do that automatically without user input, just like cover embedding

@ben2talk so the option to do this manually exist. However, it would be great as a future feature request to do it automatically, as some of us have libraries with thousands of songs.

I love how Strawberry has the ability to download embed album covers to songs as embedded covers.

Since Strawberry can search online and show lyrics, would it be possible to also do the same for lyrics? I would be amazing to have lyrics show up when I am also offline, or in my smartphone music player (screenshot below).

@silver-sun That is smart! Solved my question. Thank you!

@jonas

The stream is supported by Strawberry. I can play if I enter the URL. But I don't know how to make a file to make it discoverable in the in-built file explorer of Strawberry that only sees audio files.
