I can’t get offline art covers to work. Most albums and artists are just blank.
I am syncing from Plex server and only the cached songs themself seem to be offline, with sporadic album/artist art.
Activating ‘Automatic media offline cache’ seems to download my entire library, not only the art.
What am i doing wrong?
Yes, i tried it multiple times. But everytime i go offline, the images are gone. Also when i restart the app i can see that it takes a few seconds, with internet conection, to load them. So they don’t seem to be cashed for some reason.
Stop debug mode. Use the Manage Symfonium generated files to delete all current logs.
Be sure to have the option persistent image cache in advanced settings enabled.
Enable debug mode.
Force kill the app.
Scroll the album list to have the app load the images to cache.
Go to offline mode and scroll the same album list at the same positions.
Force kill the app. (Still offline mode)
Scroll the album list to have the app load the images to cache (or fails)
Go to online mode and scroll the same album list at the same positions.
On the last try something have deleted the cache of the app and so it create the folder again. (It’s at the proper persistent folder so nothing should do that).
Try to see if the folder /storage/9C33-6BBD/Android/ data/app.symfonik.music.player/files/images is missing during your tests to see if it’s the OS returning wrong state from the SDCARD or the files are really removed by the OS.
Check if you have some “optimizer” apps on your phone than could delete the files.
It might have been some Samsung shenanigans. I disabled some settings and it works so far. Really hope it will stay like this.
Thank you for the support.
Really love the app. Plexamp doesn’t hold a candle to Symfoniums customization.
So for some reason I haven’t had all permissions enabled for Symfonium.
And the second one was, under battery setting apps/symfonium/battery I had “optimized” on. I turned that off.
I have debugging disabled (no logs) and when i’m home, wifi loads everything in seconds. What do you mean by auto reverted?
Nothing i changed reverted in my settings.
Is it possible that by some setting my images are reseted when i use mobile data and not in offline mode?
Because that is when this thing happens.
I just had the same issue as well. Had it a couple of times a while ago until I switched to persistent image cache. Now, depsite that setting, the images got deleted. @lertonaut, seems you have a Samsung phone, too? I guess it has something to do with that… :-/
Thanks for your reply, nice to hear I’m not the only one
Yeah, I have a Galaxy Note 10. It must be this. I think it’s some internal backed into the UI nonsense, which can’t completely be turned off by users…
Love Symfonium very much, and I’m sure it’s not on their side
