Yes Clementine is still supported, what that means depends on what

[clementine-player] Re: Copying music to phone fails with unhelpful error message

[Garthhh]

Clementine is good for making up a playlist, not as good at connecting to 
devices  
Try copying the files to any external media, micro sd, flash drive...
Once you have the files on your computer, you have more options to 
transfer the files to your phone.  
Possibly the phone has a card slot or will recognize external media 
directly?
You may use your file browser or other tools to transfer...

Re: [clementine-player] Re: Invisible partition when adding a folder / Partition invisible à l'ajout d'un dossier

[Garthhh]

Dolphin for mounting   
Opening Clem when the partition with the music library is not mounted, is a 
problem   
I have my library on home & add files with dolphin instead of Clementine  
I set Clem to "Monitor for Changes", adding files updates as I watch  
I use a different player like Audacious to check meta data, before moving 
files to the Library

[clementine-player] Re: Newbie: How to make playlist show in playlist tab?

[Garthhh]

Any playlist you created by right clicking the top playlist tab, can be 
accessed by right click load playlist, no connection to the left playlist 
tab
Works fine
Never had much success getting these lists to work outside a specific 
install of Clem  

Left playlist tab, I have no idea how anything gets there or what I can do 
with anything there.  I recognize whats there as being smart playlist from 
in the past
 
Library>smart playlist is used by giving whatever playlist you are working 
on a unique identifiers to filter by  
I use a combination of comment, grouping & genre  
Criteria like duplicate, alternate version, live, long...
This way it's on the meta data  & follows the files, not the player

Have you set Clem to settings>music Library> monitor library for changes?

it's been some years

is like a new install

Copy the files from clementine to a flash drive  
Once the files are outside of clementine, you can transfer them with a file 
browser to your ipod as you need  

I copy to a sd & use find on dolphin to remove the songs from nested

can't use files from more than one folder

[clementine-player] Re: (artist,album) <= (top-folder/2nd-folder) not working

[Garthhh]

If you used itunes to do metadata editing, the files don't get modified, 
there's a change file generated which is part of Itunes...
Open a few of the files at the same time on the clementine edit track 
information right click, the musicbrainz utility may clean up some of the 
issues
Also compare the actual file names

[clementine-player] Re: QNAP version unable to play M4A and WMA

[Garthhh]

Qnap is some ubuntu linux station 2.0 thing which brags about their 
"Linux Station, users can directly utilize various feature-rich 
Linux® apps, enjoying a private cloud that combines storage and IoT 
applications."
It's built on a older kernal lts 4.12
Someone at QNAP/ubun linux station made Clementine the default player
Maybe this
https://forum.qnap.com/

Open the command line on linux station and type in clementine, which will 
start clem on the terminal for more detailed info about whatever the 
failure is

[clementine-player] Re: FAQ, newbie stuff, play an album.

[Garthhh]

That seems like a normal way to select & play an album
Just doing an internet search will get you better results than the small 
amount of official documentation available, there is a wiki on github
You can enable file names as one of the playlist headers, I let clementine 
"Monitor the library for changes" changes are reflected immediately
No idea about mac stuff, I'm on linux...

For me smart playlists are the reason to use clementine
I use the comment & group fields which are part of the file meta data, 
ratings & playcounts are not

[clementine-player] Re: Guide For The Perplexed

[Garthhh]

How did you generate the meta data for the files?  
Clementine expects
Artist>album>file
Artist>song,  works
I would make the song name the album name

Minor differences, mis-spellings, order of the filename, will show up

I generally process files I've captured with Audacity with a metadata editor
The clementine version is ok, try highlighting all the songs of an artist, 
which makes it easier to compare/share the information between the files 
using the editor
I prefer easytag, which is better at changing the file name & filling in 
the metadata

Re: [clementine-player] Re: Albums showing up under Various Artists rather than under the Artist's name

[Garthhh]

Album Artist, or the way the file name is written are the cause in most 
cases
The meta data is off in some way, the Clementine tag editor is limited & 
won't adjust all the fields
Try a different tag editor, I use Easy TAG, there are others

[clementine-player] Re: Wishlist for classical music

[Garthhh]

I don't hold genre to be sacred & feel free assign custom genres with wild 
abandon  
Use the group or comment field for each of the criteria you find important 
There are a bunch of logic tools/choices you can use to build smart 
playlists

Customizing the metadata that follows the files, will work on any player 
It makes your collection more versatile 

I'm not clear on how you want to listen to music or if you want it to 
display in a specific way?

I build a playlist of songs under 7 minutes, excluding a few genres: books, 
spoken word, jazz... 35000 gets reduced to 18000, randomize that playlist a 
couple of times, copy a 1-2000 songs onto to flashdrive or music player, 
delete those off the playlist, repeat
I spent a bunch of time chopping long cuts into 5 minute chunks, split at 
the quiet moments

I have mine, hers & ours favorites lists marked in the comment field
There are a bunch of options for how the library displays & even more for 
playlists

Clementine is mature, it does what it's going to do
The devs work on github doing bugs & such

[clementine-player] Re: Grouping by other tag fields such as Publisher (Record Label), Comment or VBR/CBR status

[Garthhh]

Try using smart playlists, which will do some of what you want directly, it 
will do large complex queries, limited by only your imagination
Like Itunes Clem has a group field, I also use the comment field as a user 
defined field
Editing large numbers of tags can cause things to lock up for some time 
while it processes, I find an outside tag editor to be helpful, I'm sure 
EasyTAG is in the ubun repository

[clementine-player] Re: Automatic playlist use more id3 tags

[Garthhh]

Grouping & bpm are already available using smart playlists, right click on 
any smart playlist to start a new one  
You can change the way the library sorts, by clicking the wrench next to 
the search box
Click on any playlist header to sort by that criteria, click again for 
inverse order
Right click any playlist header to change which are displayed, drag n drop 
to change the order
You can add a keyboard shortcuts to change the shuffle mode & a bunch of 
other things
I don't know about play counts or ratings.  They are player files & in 
their own database, having no universal format may not be cross compatible 
I stick with fields that are metadata, comments & grouping, which follow 
the files, not the player 


Clementine is developed on git hub, feature requests & bug reports are 
handled there

[clementine-player] Re: Getting started with Clemetine

[Garthhh]

Go to the library pane, drag some artist, albums,  songs on to a playlist
Open one of the premade smart playlists, or build a new one
Open the smart playlist of all songs, click the headers of the playlist & 
sort different ways

Welcome :D

[clementine-player] Re: Recursive playlists

[Garthhh]

Probably no need to write new code, the tools are there
You will be able to do this with smart playlists, if you can design the 
filters/queries, 
There is a group field, you can define as playlist name, which will save as 
meta data  
Depending how sacrosanct you hold the comment field, it can also be a user 
defined identifier  
I define live music as genre live rock, live classical... which is handy to 
exclude/include

[clementine-player] Re: Library only holds around 40% of entire MP3 collection

[Garthhh]

Most likely the files are there, but are hiding in the library  
Clementine expects Artist>album>file to be the structure of your library
Click on the wrench next to the search box & change the way the library 
displays
Check the various artists folder, anything with confused meta data can end 
up there
Click the files tab on the left & see if the missing files are in the 
library
Confirm your music library folder is set correctly

[clementine-player] Re: Right click / Show in file explorer

[Garthhh]

I have normal behavior on manjaro kde dolphin 1.4rc2, I have picked Dolphin 
as my default file browser
Right clicking on a smart playlist doesn't offer me a show in file browser 
option, if I select a bunch of songs on a playlist & choose open in 
browser, I get a separate instance of Dolphin [file browser] for every 
artist, normal behavior  
Can you right click to file browser from the library or files tab on the 
left?  
Which desktop environment? file browser?

Re: [clementine-player] Digest for clementine-player@googlegroups.com - 2 updates in 1 topic

[Garthhh]

Clementine has some powerful tools, many of which I don't quite understand  
Clementine always had a right click Delete option, which now reads Delete 
>From Disk, I blew up a few files accidentally learning  the clementine 
definition of delete

I've never used the right click organize files choice  
I guess that it organizes whatever files on the playlist you have 
highlighted
The Organize Files when copying to device, allows you to reorder the file 
names of the files on the external media or player to suit the specific 
requirements  

Clementine expects your music library to be organized 
Artist[folder]>Album[folder]>Song[file]  
I generally just create a folder [album] & give it a name for random files  
Best of collections with various artists, I just put the songs with their 
artist or make the artist whoever the collection is a tribute to  
Another method is to give the collection a custom Genre, Group or Comment 
tag  
I use duplicate, alternate version & live as genre to filter for playlist 
building   

The devs are not on this forum
You can find them on Github

Re: [clementine-player] Digest for clementine-player@googlegroups.com - 2 updates in 1 topic

[Garthhh]

I can't compare to media monkey as I haven't had a windows machine in a 
decade or so
Rhythm box is itune like built for gnome

Clementine is a music files database manager, with many tools specific to 
music files
Designed to do queries of large databases of music files 

Build a smart playlist [query], which allows you to set as many different 
parameters for the sort as you want, the output will be a playlist
There are 26 parameters you can include or exclude in as many combinations 
as you can imagine  
If you need additional fields for custom parameters, grouping & comment are 
available
You can also right click or drag songs, albums or entire genres onto any 
playlist, the playlists will tab  
You can have one playlist playing, while you work on a different ones
You can save the playlist as a 3mu, or copy the files to an external flash 
drive
There is no way to save the files that make up a playlist to a different 
directory on the same hdd
You can also change the way the library displays [sorts], click the wrench 
to the right of the search box

[clementine-player] Re: Is it possible to move files in a another directory in Clementine?

[Garthhh]

As long as you add the new directory to Tool>preferences>music 
library+folder

What kind of sorting is slow?
If the library has to run through a usb or network the initial or start up 
scan will be slower
Less capable hardware will lock up for extended periods
If the usb/network are not connected before clementine is opened, also 
slows things down

[clementine-player] Re: Cannot Edit Tracks in Playlist

[Garthhh]

Look at the file names on a regular file browser [nautilus]
There are just some things the built in tag editor on clementine has

I use Easytag, does all the fields, clementine misses a few, including 
changing the file names 
You will find it in the ubun repository

[clementine-player] Re: New files do not appear in the library

[Garthhh]

What operating system?  BCUninstaller suggests some version of windows
Her's some suggestions
When new files don't appear in your library, check the various artists, if 
the Meta data is not quite right various artists is where they end up  
Change the far left tab from library to files & see if you can navigate to 
the files  
Sounds like you may have changed the path to your Music Folder, 
uninstalling-reinstalling  
Try Tools>Music Library> Remove folder & re enter the location of your 
Music Folder

[Garthhh]

You can sort the playlist any way you want, click on the genre tab at the 
top 
Right click on any of the tabs to enable what ever tabs you would like to 
see at the top of the playlist
Click on the wrench next to the search box to change how the library 
displays, if you would like to sort the entire library by genre

[clementine-player] Re: The player is not coming up front when clicking on a song in a folder.

[Garthhh]

I don't think it's a Clementine problem
What file browser?
What operating system?
What desktop environment?

Clementine adds a duplicate on whatever playlist I have open if I double 
click on a song in my file browser [KDE/Dolphin]  :D

Access your music library through Clem, using the library or files tab for 
best results

I have a keyboard shortcuts for play/pause & next song using keys close to

What's a "Music Bee" & why would we want to screw up Clementine? :D
There are nearly infinite number of ways to make music come out..

Smartplaylist>all tracks
Sort however you like

On the library Right click on a band>add to new playlist

Click the wrench next to the search have the library sort by genre.right

Another method is to use a sym link from a folder on your computer to the 
SD card

Clementine is designed for the library to be organized artist, album, song, 
on the local HDD, doing it other ways can require more care & feeding

I do my backups to sd/tz

[clementine-player] Re: Suggestions

[Garthhh]

I use the comment field to set custom tags, sometimes the grouping field

I'm not clear what you mean by
"I cannot open my folders from the list on the left"
Library tab or files tab?
Clementine expects your library to be organized
Folders for each artist, containing folders/albums, containing songs
Click on the wrench right of the search box for other ways for the library 
to display/sort including file type
I never add any files through clementine, I just put them where they belong 
with a file browser, I'm set to "monitor library for changes", the new 
files appear immediately

There are some things the clem metadata editor isn't able to do as well as 
I modify metadata with an outside utility [eztag] to get the filenames in 
the right order, numbering inconsistencies repaired, I sometimes have to 
restart Clem [library scan] for the changes to take effect effect
I use an outside utility for replay gain

No idea what utilities to suggest for a windows pc

[clementine-player] Copy to Device greyed out

[Garthhh]

I can no longer copy to device directly, my device is a new usb flash 
drives which aren't detected at all
I added the usb as a library source, which makes the library think there 
are duplicates of the files I copyed, which I can remove from 
playlist>Remove unavailable track from playlist
No idea how to fix my library?  The actual files do not contain duplicates, 
rescanning has no effect

I got some files on a usb, but was forced to organize [default deletes 
original files], which leaves all the files nested inside folders, which 
make them unusable to for the mp3 players I use them on

Manjaro linux

[clementine-player] Re: Question about smart playlist dynamic mode

[Garthhh]

You can limit the number of songs visible on the playlist with the dynamic 
mode
When it comes to the random part, it's not as random as I would like, I 
don't like duplicates which seems to happen enough for me to notice...
I build a playlist, shuffle that a couple of time & play in order, no 
duplicates :D
I've added tags for duplicate, live, alt version, best, using the genre or 
comment fields, 
I have a smart list that filters out: longer than 7minutes, live, 
duplicate, books, spoken word...

Your file manager see's the sd as an external device, but clementine

My experience using Clementine is that anything you plug in & is recognized

When all else fails reformat

[clementine-player] Re: Permissions Ubuntu sdCard

[Garthhh]

Clementine thinks an SD card is a device, as if it were a stand alone player
Can you navigate to it through the Files tab?

[clementine-player] Re: Use of Organize Files

[Garthhh]

Try a smaller number of files, 
Used to be if you did a very large operations, clem would freeze, sometimes 
the entire computer, worse on machines without lots of ram & cores
The new behavior is crash, I opened 2 playlists of 15k files  accidentally, 
as I wasn't sure if it worked & clicked again, crash
I moved to outside metadata editing tools after having files with hincky 
metadata clementine couldn't change enough to fix file names or other stuff
EasyTag on linux, 
I never tried the organize function on clem,

[clementine-player] Re: Rndom play - not so much-

[Garthhh]

I also find that to be true, the random isn't the right kind of random
The solution is to shuffle the playlist & play sequentially
I sometimes shuffle playlists of a few 1000 songs, many times the 1st 
shuffle leaves songs from the same artist in pairs
This method does eliminate having the same song come up multiple times

[clementine-player] Re: Ripped songs from cd no tag info

[Garthhh]

The files are in the location the rest of the library is?

Meta data [MD] is tricky stuff Clementine has some trouble if the MD isn't 
just so
The exact file name & the order the parameters listed, has tripped me up 
more than once
Processing the files with a better tag editor can help
I like EasyTAG which should be in the Lubun repository
ET does stuff the built in clem tag editor doesn't, like re writing the 
file names

Have you tried transcoding into other formats?
Other transcode tools might be better than the clem version, which is 
probably pretty basic, I have soundKonverter, again probably in the 
repository

[clementine-player] Re: Music library

[Garthhh]

How are you adding music?
Tools>Preferences>Music Library>Add Folder
You can then just add music to that folder directly Clementine will find it
If you are using a set of files on outside storage, it must be connected 
before you open Clementine

Further options are available using smart playlists & filters

[clementine-player] Re: Three questions about Clementine

[Garthhh]

Which clementine version are you using?
1 & 2 are likely apple specific, I can't be any help

I understand what you mean by item number, which I see on my cheap car 
stereos playing flash drives burned on Clementine
I too would appreciate being able to display & manipulate that information 
as a column
This sort of feature request would have a better chance of success on git 
hub where the Clementine developers are

Re: [clementine-player] Adding New Music to Clementine

[Garthhh]

Invoking a rescan has always been painfully slow, 
It's quicker to close & reopen the entire program
If I manually move or modify files with an outside program like a file 
browser or tag editor, I sometimes see the changes go into effect when I 
click back over to clementine, the library pane will revert to the last 
state
The meta data being slightly different across an album, can make you play 
where did my file go :O
If the file name doesn't match the meta data or a myriad of other things
My library is sorted artist>year>album, so if one song has a different 
year, it appears as 2 albums

I import files outside my library & use exaile & eztag to check the 
integrity, before putting the files into my library manually  
Exaile  doesn't have the same playlist 
capabilities, but isn't as finicky as to library path, easily jumping from 
folder to folder

Clementine does a bunch of fun stuff in terms of smart playlist filters 
using the group or comment tag [meta data], that I haven't found in other 
players, the price is fussing around with a tagger, the clementine tagger 
will do most, but stuff involving the filename & some of the other bits not 
so much

[clementine-player] Re: Double entries in my Library display

[Garthhh]

If you put new music in whatever location you have told clementine your 
library is
Clementine will integrate any additions into the library automatically, no 
need to manually add the files 
You can determine when that happens
Tools>Preferences>Music Library>Automatic Updating

Add a tag for each collection, as a grouping or comment
You will be able to use the tag as a filter to build smart playlists

[clementine-player] Re: Exporting all the playlists togheter,

[Garthhh]

More information about how you use your playlists & which operating system 
could be helpful to help you find a solution

Use smart playlists instead of simple ones
Use the comment or group as the filter criteria
For example
change the grouping on every file on a playlist to whatever you use for a 
play list name
or
You could save the files to any removable storage, instead of as playlists
This won't work on the same storage device as your library, unless it is on 
a different partition [linux speak]
Manipulate the files with clementine in the folders as if they were a Ipod 
or phone adding/subtracting files

[clementine-player] Re: Neophyte coming in for a landing

[Garthhh]

It would be helpful if you told us what operating system you are using
There is no manual, most times if you do a general internet search for a 
question about Clementine will provide answers, looking through the threads 
here will have some hints 
Keep a copy of your files some where safe, try stuff
Tools>Cover Manager>Right click on any item>search for album covers, is an 
easy way to start, you can always cancel, if there are no results keep 
removing information & search again

The library is a folder containing all the folders for each artist 
containing folders for each album that contains the individual files, that 
is the structure Clementine expects to find
you can do it other ways, but may not be able to use all the features

I have 1000's of files I generated from lp's, getting the tags in a useful 
form can require inputting every parameter individually or looking up the 
discography of the band on wikipedia  
Right click any file in your library or playlist>Edit track 
information>complete tags automatically will work part of the time, the 
clementine tag editor is very powerful, but can take some time if the 
number of tag being changed 
I also use Easy Tag to write tags in my library
The information doesn't have to be correct, it just need to exist & be 
consistent enough to meet your needs
I'd say Artist, Album, Track number, track name [which can be the same as 
track number] would be the minimum, the album could contain all of the 
artists songs & be called anything, I would avoid having every album have 
the same name as it's confusing...
Being able to sort [playlist] & filter [Smart Playlists] allows you to 
generate playlists without explicitly picking every song one at a time

[clementine-player] Re: Intergration with Linux Mint 19

[Garthhh]

A more comprehensive way to sort is make a smart plalist & set some filters
What is the default player for Mint? Probably something in the gnome 
universe
There is no reason to add more "Features", clem is fine, security updates 
for the underlying bits are current.  I suppose at some point it may be 
necessary integrate with the newer version of QT
Should there be any developmen going on it is being worked on over at 
github only users are on this forum

[clementine-player] Re: What exactly does Clementine sync to a connected iPod?

[Garthhh]

When you open the devices tab on clementine, can you see the songs on the 
ipod?
Drag n drop may work
I haven't used clementine with an ipod for nearly 10 years, so your mileage 
may definitely vary 
I started using cheap mp3 players, when the price of a cf card to replace 
the hdd for an ipod, exceeded an entire player

If you delete files off a playlist or off a connected device, the files in 
your library remain
To delete from library, right click on a song & click delete from disk, 
there will be an "are you sure?" kind of nag box
This is good since "delete from disk"  is right below the "copy to device" 
right click selection

[clementine-player] Re: Library list.

[Garthhh]

You can fix up the tags a bit
the album artist tag can do that kind of thing
right click on an album>edit track information for the clementine tag editor
Change the name of the album so greatest hits aren't the 1st words
The specific file name can be a problem, which you can see with easytag or 
some other tag editor

Take any playlist & shuffle playlist
Shuffle the playlist several times & scan the list to see...
set to don't shuffle
Play
you will have a much better idea of how many files have been played, there 
won't be any repeats or skips unless they are contained within the playlist

[clementine-player] Re: Not all songs from my "library" is in Clementine library

[Garthhh]

You will probably find the "missing" files in unknown artist or various 
artist, the metadata for the files is not quite right...
Open the playlist all songs & sort by different parameters for clues
Try checking with a tag editor I use Easy Tag 
Things like the file name not lining up with the ID3 tags is one of the 
causes

[clementine-player] Re: playlists vs play queue and static playlists

[Garthhh]

What do you mean by
"I go to my library and play songs from a folder"
Playing through the clem interface or by right clicking from a file browser?

Go to: Tools>Preferences>Behaviour
this will answer some of your questions

Many Playlists
One Queue

The Queue is whatever playlist contains the song presently playing or paused
all the playlists open on the clementine can be modified, you can save any 
version of a playlist you wish, to be opened as you need

Re: [clementine-player] Re: Clementine to Android

[Garthhh]

if you copy the xspf file that will be whats on your phone, an xspf file
to get the actual songs open the playlist on Clementine > select all > 
right click > copy to device
there will be options to set the file structure however you would like it 
to be & which device you would like to "copy to"

[clementine-player] Re: Clementine to Android

[Garthhh]

if you plug your android into your computer & are able to navigate with a 
file browser to where the music is stored
Clementine will be able to manage those files through the devices tab on 
the left side

as a work around you can copy music to a tf card & install in your android 
device
