I have a NFS share that gets mounted via fstab. My music collection is on that mount and every time I add the folder in Strawberry music player it gets a very weird path name (I never understood how that works in Bazzite, little bit like magic).
But after some upgrades the pathname changes and I have to add the folder again, which can take several minutes until it finishes to scan.
Is it possible to have a clear folder path? It ist a NFS share, nothing will ever change. Why the cryptic path stuff?
I can’t be the only one with this problem.
Here is what the folder path looks like after a fresh scan:
After almost every Bazzite Update, the folder path changes to some other cryptic path. Even after using the correct path /var/opt/media/Musik
Any ideas how to fix this. Every new scan takes several minutes.
Hi @tenten36. Are you saying that if you enter the /var/opt/media/Musik
path (which is static) it gets changed to /run/user/1000/doc/<random>/Musik
in Strawberry player?
Can you show the mount line from the fstab?
I don’t think it’s a problem with the nfs mount. Everythings else works great. Only strawberry decides to change that path. Where does that even come from?
Yeah, it’s probably Strawberry acting smart. I wonder if Strawberry (or KDE) is detecting some secondary mount. Can you do mount
with no options just to show active mounts and/or df -h
. There could be some mount point in /run/user/1000/doc/<random>/Musik
.
Are you maybe using or running Strawberry inside Distrobox or some other containerization, even Flatpak? Mount points on a host get mapped in all sort of weird ways inside a container.
