I have strawberry installed on two computers: a Linux desktop and an M1 Mac, and it seems like the audio quality is actually better than other audio players on each platform. I'm curious if this is just my head playing games with my perceptions or if there's a real reason why this might be the case. It seems like the audio is a little cleaner, maybe more crisp. I don't know for sure, but it just seems more clear. In particular why would Strawberry sound better than Apple's Music.app with the same combination of files, speakers and OS?
My apologies if this is just some kind of placebo effect that I'm rambling on about.

Does Strawberry actually sound better?

RE: Moving from Linux Mint to OPENSUSE. Copy and move Database
@herculepirate Part of that will depend on where you have your actual music files stored. In Mint the database files are located in ~/.local/share/strawberry/strawberry and the configuration in ~/.config/strawberry. As long as the music files themselves are stored in the same location on the Suse computer (typically in
$HOME/Music
), you should be able to just drop those directories in your new home directory.How big is your library? That seems like an insanely long time to read generate the database. I have around 4k albums and it takes less than an hour to do a full rescan.
