This has been answered previously on GitHub if you search the issues, and is also available if you Google.

There is a ongoing progress for over 2 years for getting Strawberry into Debian:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=913079

There is a PPA repository available for Ubuntu. As well as deb packages for all current Debian and Ubuntu releases.

There is a process getting strawberry into chocolatey here:
https://chocolatey.org/packages/strawberrymusicplayer

Strawberry was previously published as a snap but I decided based on negative experience, user feedback and reviews that I no longer want strawberry available as a snap. So I no longer plan on maintaining a snap of strawberry.
The software Center in Ubuntu were full of negative reviews of strawberry, most of the negative reviews were because of technical issues with the snap, and not bugs in strawberry.
Users were also reporting too many issues specific to the snap on GitHub issues for strawberry which takes away valuable time for me that I need to dedicate to development.
I don't think this would change much if someone else were maintaining the snap, as most users just report the issues directly to strawberry anyway, many users just install it from the software center and hardly ever know if it's a snap or not.

I suspect with Flatpak, we will struggle with the same of the same issues as the snap.

@atomtm on Linux it might work if you mount the sftp through fstab.

@terrior In Tools / Settings / Behavior. "When double clicking a song will..", you can change "Never start playing" it to start playing.
It will then immediately play the song, although it will still be added to the playlist.

@yvanxx55 Not sure how this happened, but removing and re-adding the collection directories should fix it.
Otherwise you need to run SQL queries to remove the duplicates.

@kuroo you can't download podcast.

@arooni The equalizer settings will only be applied once you check the enabled checkbox before starting playback.

@overcast451
I have not seen this crash before. The crash looks Qt or protobuf related.
The MessageHandlerBase is related to tag reading/writing which uses protobuf.
I suggest to report it to Fedora if it continues to crash.

@crank
Only admins can see e-mail addresses unless you specifically check "show e-mail". And I'm the only admin here, so I'm not sure how they could have found your e-mail from the forum.

@orbvs
Strawberry works with both Qt 5 and 6.

@orbvs
This should fix it: https://github.com/strawberrymusicplayer/strawberry/commit/010a0cc2a732a02578f22f099488c72e2e9a20fc

You can use my repository from openSUSE buildservice if you want the fix right now:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:jonaski:audio/strawberry

@orbvs
I can reproduce the problem with Qt 6, but not with Qt 5.15.2

@chrisc
Only audio files will be filtered.
You need to mount the NAS to a mountpoint.

@yelpspoon
Run strawberry from the terminal to see any output. Open a terminal and type:

/Applications/strawberry.app/Contents/MacOS/strawberry

Check that strawberry is enabled/allowed in the accessibility system settings.

@yahyah24
Could be unsupported audio filetypes.
It will also skip any directory that is hidden (.dot), or has files named ".nomedia" or ".nomusic".

@robyn

Make sure the desktop file is installed, normally it should be:

/usr/share/applications/strawberry.desktop

Make sure that strawberry is installed in PATH, and that it isn't a different version from the one you launch.

sudo find /usr -type f -name 'strawberry'

Make sure the "tidal" URL scheme is correctly registered to strawberry, run the following command in a terminal while strawberry is open:

xdg-open tidal://test

This should add "tidal://test" to the active playlist. If that works, then it means authentication with TIdal should be possible.

If it still doesn't work, then try close firefox and reopen, or set a different web browser as default.

@choobs
There was a bug when organizing songs and moving between different collection directories, it was duplicating the songs in the database. It is fixed now.

@llucps I realize it won't work because all the libraries used from homebrew are compiled on Big Sur with no comparability.

@vonpolak Why is it impossible to use? Do the device appear in Tools / Settings / Backend / Device list?

I wonder if I can just build on Big Sur and set CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 10.14
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET.html

@llucps
Yeah, that's why I made different releases for each macOS version now.
The only problem with that is that I can no longer update the sparkle updater, since that would update for those that have Big Sur to the Mojave or Catalina builds. But maybe there is a solution for that I'm not a aware of.
