App Version:

Feb 9, 2019

Affected Device(s):

OnePlus 7 Pro with Android 10.0

Describe the Bug:

All FLAC files unable to be detected by TimberX.

To Reproduce:

  1. download any FLAC file to phone
  2. open TimberX
  3. search for that file

Expected Behavior:

FLAC file plays just like mp3 and other file formats. FLAC file is supported by default Google Music player. Any reason TimberX could not play it?

TimberX can play FLAC perfectly fine. The issue is that when a music file is downloaded, the phone's MediaStore has not been updated to include that file, so music players cannot find it (unless they have a refresh MediaStore setting built-in). You can usually fix this simply by rebooting the phone (this regenerates the MediaStore index).

Here's a related post. (Note that they say to clear Media Storage; you don't actually have to do this, but you can if you want I guess.)
