@jonas Yes I use the last played time (oldest first), fwiw the actual search criteria is here https://imgur.com/a/M5AbzAR (far too complicated!) as I wrote when it skips in the albums I'm thinking of all the tracks satisfy those criteria and on the next edit page are shown sequentially just when they appear on the playlist due to dynamic mode being set, some tracks get skipped.

I use smart playlists a lot and have noticed that with tracks being added dynamically as the playlist is played that tracks which satisfy the conditions aren't included when I expect. I normally sort by last played time in an attempt to get an album play list feature. Typically I see every other track within that album being added. I then have to manually insert the missing tracks. If I edit that smart playlist and view the tracks the order is correct and the tracks I wanted aren't missing from that list, and creating a new playlist from it, is again correct.
Having the correct order is very useful if you are listening to 'classical' albums - I listen a lot to song cycles which tell a story so having the right order is important.
Is the skipping in dynamic mode a feature - let's have some variety - or is this a bug?

@jonas Ah submodules - thanks for the pointer! cmake now works.

@jonas I'm getting (after deleting CMakeCache.txt)

  By not providing "FindKDSingleApplication-qt6.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH
  this project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided
  by "KDSingleApplication-qt6", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by
  "KDSingleApplication-qt6" (requested version 1.1.0) with any of the
  following names:

    KDSingleApplication-qt6Config.cmake
    kdsingleapplication-qt6-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "KDSingleApplication-qt6" to
  CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "KDSingleApplication-qt6_DIR" to a directory
  containing one of the above files.  If "KDSingleApplication-qt6" provides a
  separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.

and then

CMake Error at 3rdparty/kdsingleapplication/CMakeLists.txt:5 (add_library):
  Cannot find source file:

@jonas I'm trying to build strawberry and getting a failure on finding KDSingleApplication-qt6Config.cmake so far I'm not finding the right package on Kubuntu 23.10 what dev package am I missing?

@jonas Have you had any response to this? - I have a family plan (and I have your email)

@rajm Oh and my library is around 40000 tracks so less than the 100000 used to determine a different method in CollectionFilterWidget::FilterTextChanged

@jonas It's 1.0.23 I think it crashes less, but I've just locked it up doing a search and immediately another - where just one character of my search string was displayed and system eventually started swapping..

@MarvinTM1 Yes I see an occasional crash here too (Ubuntu Linux in this case), I try to avoid the problem by first restricting the search by date (Added this week) and then open it up to the full library

The option to edit a Smart Playlist is next to the one to Delete, it is easy to select the wrong one by accident. Unless I've forgotten I've set it to not confirm, the deletion just happens with no 'did you mean this' dialog. It would be good to have that (maybe remembering the choice) dialog.

@Giedo I get something close to this - assuming that previously you've listened to the full album - and imported stats from amarok - by using a smart playlist and ordering last played with oldest first. Sometimes it skips (doesn't add) some of the tracks though

@mncroc Thirded - it would also be nice to be able to use one smartlist as a basis for creating another - a 'save as' feature?

It would , at least for my usage of strawberry, to have an option to display track numbers in the collection.
Example scenario:
You have this huge (284 track) album https://www.naxos.com/CatalogueDetail/?id=VOX-ED-5996
Use smart playlist and it selects amongst others (say) track 252 - a prelude for which there's a matching fugue. I try to add the fugue so that I listen to both, that involves using 'Show in Collection' and then hunting through that display to find track 253, the scrolling down would be a lot easier with the option of having track numbers. Maybe a workaround (at the moment) is to instead use 'Show in file browser' and then - assuming the track is part of the filename - drag the track into the collection.

If I'm playing a track and select 'show in collection' if I then notice the album image is incorrect, do a 'search for album covers' select a better one, the cover is changed but the display of the track and any others in that album/artist search in the collection window is cleared.

@smeatheringham I was thinking that this works for me - but I see that it's substrings not at the start of words that don't work. So etud gives me correct search results but tud doesn't

I have a cue file with lines like
TITLE "Symphony No. 5 - II. Stürmisch bewegt. Mit größter Vehemenz"
but in the playlist and the collection browser they're not being correctly shown

I'm using your 1.0.17-63-g3df29ed2 build looking at the code
I'd assume that the #if (QT_VERSION >= QT_VERSION_CHECK(6, 0, 0)) is correctly detected - and the about Qt claims to be 6.3.1
The ü character is well within the first 1024 characters (assuming that's peek check). Maybe I should run through with gdb unless there's an obvious fail here?

@rajm PR created - feel free to ignore if you think the composer tag is not sufficiently defined meta data, finding definitions of cue files is hard (for me anyway!)

@mrbluebudo the empty rules menu has been fixed (at least for me!) - in recent builds which you'll need to download manually

@jonas On checking - I had protobuf-compiler already installed (so why did I install via snap??!!) I removed the snap version and re-ran cmake - make then gave me
ext/libstrawberry-tagreader/CMakeFiles/libstrawberry-tagreader.dir/build.make:73: *** target pattern contains no '%'. Stop.
I removed the build directory contents and then cmake/make ran ok - not sure whether cmake should just have worked with the dependency change but it's now ok.

@jonas Will do! (but at moment the bug isn't re-appearing)
