I use smart playlists almost exclusively.

I want to be able to sort the list or reorder them.

@KillerKomodoOhNo

I scrobble to three places last.fm, libre.fm, and listenbrainz. listenbrainz is by far the best.

@Sharky-PI In your collection view. Hover over the search field, and a box will appear that tells you how to do this. Most of these will also work in the listing search.

@rakham You can import the data from Clementine. The instructions are here in the forum. I did it.

@KillerKomodoOhNo: If you scrobble, this is easy.

My all-time stats on ListenBrainz

@ondra5 I can barely see the icon and not well enough to guess what it is.

@poppop I have "Finger Printing and Tracking" turned on.

Does Strawberry write something to the files each time they are played?

@desputin If I understand correctly, you need to set the rating to >3.5. That will play anything rated at four or above.

@rlkeeney Control-P Click on the top option (Behavior) 12 lines down is the language drop-down.

It is working now. I had changed some settings on the scrobblers and misunderstood the settings I was changing.

I thought a local file would scribble anything on my hard drive. Apparently, it only scrobbles files I play that are not in my collection. I never do this with Strawberry, and it was the only one selected. I turned on Collection and turned off Local Files.

Strawberry stopped three times in the last 24.

Could there be something connected with the playlist list causing this? It is a very large playlist.

Linux Mint 22.1
Strawberry 1.2.13 from flatpak

I have all three scroblers connected, and none of them have worked since 8 August 2025.

I have reset the connections to the scobblers to no avail.

Strawberry stopped two times today, about 15 minutes apart.

I just upgraded to Version 1.2.12. I'm waiting to see what happens now.

@rlkeeney
Try setting low watermark to 0.10 and buffer duration to 8000

This did not work. It stopped twice in the last 24 hours.

@jonas Done.

I have it looping on a long play and running 24/7.

@jonas Strawberry stopped playing again with the buffering set to 0ms.

@jonas said in Continuous Buffering:

@rlkeeney
Is it local files or streams? If local files, do you play them from the local HD, or remotely? And what audio format is it?

It is local files. I never stream.

They are played from an internal SATA hard drive.

The audio format is MP3.

I play MP3s using smart playlists 99% of the time. The only time I don't use a playlist is when I am playing something new and unrated.

I have all three scrobblers enabled, along with the cover search, although I really don't need this, as I rarely look at a cover.

Pretty much everything else is disabled, including the analyzer and mood bar, which I see as useless.

@poilu You are obviously paying much closer attention to it than I am. Strawberry is almost always playing in the background, unless I am doing something like watching a video. When I'm deeply immersed in a project, I can lose track of time, and it won't register with me that it has stopped playing for a long time. So, I usually do not know when it stops.

It always stops on a track change and may be connected with the buffering issue, which I mentioned in another post. The continuous buffering also happens on a track change.
