Musicalypse don't load library when starting

[StephaneDeVannes]

Hello!
I use Musicalypse with snap on Gallium OS.

• The music folder has been added in settings (it's an external hard drive : /mnt...)
• The first scan was OK
• But after reboot, Musicalypse don't load this folder. He just memorizes the last song played.

How to fix it please?
(and : thanks for this beautiful design)

Hello,
Please try installing Musicalypse through the available AppImage directly. This might fix your issue.

It's what I did:

• I downloaded the Musicalypse-1.0.0-x64.AppImage
• Gave perrmissions
• Set the external drive as source for music
• Launch the first scan (the library filled with folders)

But when I quit and launch again Musicalype, the library looks empty.
(dommage, cette appli est classe ! :)

On launch, Musicalypse scans the library directory and removes any file that has been deleted or that it doesn't have access to anymore. I guess in your case the external drive might be unavailable on application start, hence the whole library is cleared. So you should make sure the external drive is indeed available whenever you launch Musicalypse.

To check this assertion maybe try to use a local folder with some music and see if the problem persists.

(Merci! ;)

Yes, that's it: Musicalypse remembers the local music folder.
Thanks!

(Et continuez : cette appli est vraiment très bien !)
