From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi. I recently published my app on Flathub and have been steadily updating it to make it better.

With it you can download Music from Youtube and tag it to create a beautiful collection of local Music. Check it out: https://flathub.org/apps/net.fhannenheim.musicfetch

I had similar problems where the logs say it moved the file to my Music directory, but the directory was empty. I made multiple attempts using different directories and making sure the app has permissions with flatseal, but no luck.

It seems like a nice app though, I'm gonna keep an eye on it!

On the download done page there is a button on top with a directory icon, which opens the files in a file manager. Can you please try again and click it and tell me where the files have been downloaded to? That may be a mistake on my part

Hey, thanks for the response! I tried again with the recent update (--version says 1.2.1) and still having the problem. The button you refer to opens my file manager in the system root directory, instead of the download directory shown in settings which is now by default set to my home folder instead of ~/Music like in the prior version.

To recreate, I ran the app from the CLI and searched the videos tab for "flowers", then clicked download on the top result. The metadata pages had blank values (are they supposed to populate automatically somehow?), and I clicked through until I got to the final page below.

PS: I tried again with another song (Big Boogie - Shut Up) that seems to have metadata available from however MusicFetch is finding metadata. The logs are slightly different in that it seems to attempt to save the file where it is configured to do so (the home folder), but there's still not actually a file saved in that location when I click to open in my file manager:

Edit: forgot to mention, I'm using Fedora Workstation 43, in case that's relevant for you.

Good luck with the app, it's a really good idea!

I've now tried a fresh install in a Fedora Workstation 43 VM with the language set to German and it worked.

You could try rm .config/cosmic/net.fhannenheim.musicfetch -rf to reset the app and try again.
