@jonas dankjewel ... er bleek geen probleem met de database Ik heb de desbetrefffende file hernoemd en het probleem was miraculeus opgelost, draait nu toch al een week ongestoord. Vreemd gedrag. Toch bedankt

@korafola Check the database to see if the songs are marked "unavailable", which means the file can't be read. https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Accessing_the_database sqlite3 ~/.local/share/strawberry/strawberry/strawberry.db select url, unavailable from songs where unavailable = 1; if the songs appear there, then check if the songs are valid with an utility: https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Validate_audio_files If there are no issues with files, then check the files with the tagreader utility witch comes with taglib. If the files are read with tagreader. A full collection rescan should solve it if the files are valid and can be read. Start strawberry from the a terminal window, do a full rescan and check for errors. If you are using taglib older than 1.12 you should upgrade taglib. Some distros still use TagLib 1.11.1 which is an 7 years old release, so file a bug report to your distro in that case.
