I have a similar problem. The tags are edited with easyTag. GMB doesn't show "Komponist" (german for Composer), but if I got to extended properties I see Composer. Maybe this is a problem with the tag translation? I added a screenshot with properties and extended.
Thx a lot!

Have you tried re-reading the tags of your music after enabling the 'Composer Tag'? Just try it with one song -> Right click on song and click 're-read tags'.

Hello, the problem was with the configuration file, but unfortunately I did not exactly notice the bug. I fixed it by comparing a brand new config file and my corrupted file with the software meld. I started by copying the end of my file, doing tests each time I copy / paste, until the problem reappears. What I do know is that the problem was at the beginning of the file ... Sorry for the lack of precision and thank you very much for your answer.

No just send me one of the "playlists indicating what month a song was added". I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, does the file contains a date for each song, of is it the playlist itself that is named after the date? I need to know how to get the date from the playlist.

The problem with that is you need to be able to select the row without activating it.
Are you using the gtk3 version (still in beta) ? It might handle touchscreen better.
Also are you using the SongList or the SongTree, the SongList use the standard TreeView gtk widget so it might work better (though it is a bit slow with lots of songs in the gtk3 version).

Hi, I don't know why anything in the config file could have that effect. Can you post a screenshot of that "black page" ? If you think it comes from the config file, you can send it to me (squentin gmail.com) I'll take a look.

Currently you can only save the play count in the tag (Settings->Fields->Play count->check "Read/Write in file tag"->restart, though it will only write modified play counts, if you want to write all existing play counts, you then have to go in Settings->Tags->Update Tags->select "play count".
About writing "last play", I've been thinking about adding write options recently, maybe this year?

Good morning all,

I'm new here and have been a fan of gmusicbrowser for years. If this app were to go away, I'd be pulling my hair out.
There you go, I am using gmusicbrowser on two computers, but with a single configuration file that I move from one to the other in order to remember the number of times played, the last time played etc.

Since yesterday I have a bug: I no longer have access to the configuration menu (settings): it opens a black page.

Do you know which line is affected in the config file and how I can fix it? I don't want to start over with a brand new file, precisely so as not to lose information such as the number of times played and the last times played.

And by the way, if anyone knows if there is a way to put these two pieces of information in the track tag, that would be great.

Thank you.

Bonjour à tous,

Je suis nouveau ici et je suis un inconditionnel de gmusicbrowser depuis dès années. Si ce soft devait disparaître, je m'arracherais les cheveux.
Voilà,  j'utilise gmusicbrowser sur deux ordinateurs, mais avec un seul fichier de configuration que je déplace de l'un à l'autre afin de mémoriser le nombre de fois jouées, la dernière fois jouée etc.

Depuis hier j'ai un bug: je n'a plus accès au menu configuration (settings): ça m'ouvre une page noire.

Savez-vous quelle ligne est concernée dans le fichier de configuration et comment je peux faire pour résoudre ce problème? Je ne veux pas repartir sur un fichier tout neuf, justement pour ne pas perdre les infos du type nombre de fois jouées et dernière fois jouées.

Et d'ailleurs en passant, si quelqu'un sait s'il y a moyen d'inscrire ces deux infos dans le tag des morceaux, ce serait super.

Merci à vous.

I am working on a theme for GMB to work on PinePhone Mobian. So far it's working pretty well, but double-clicking doesn't work well on a touchscreen device. Mobian will probably create a universal fix, at some point, but for now, is there a way to set it so the track activates on single-click, not double?

Quentin, thanks for the quick reply. Sorry, I did not get a notification that you replied. Do you want me to save a playlist, then go into gmbrc file and find it, then paste it the way it's represented in that file?
