Problems with 2.19.X

Hello,

After the 2.19.0 update which I think removes "All Files" permission from the player, I had some problems with my Sources and had to re-add them using SAF. However, when using SAF, the scan loops if it encounter a certain character (in my case '#') no matter if it's on the folder name or file name. In case of only the file's name has the character, the scan would finish but no file is added/processed.

Here's the screenshot of the scan looping:

After installing 2.19.0 nothing works

The app doesn't find the music files in the folders. Every setting is lost.
I can't get the app playing.
And don't know what to do.
Could anybody help me?

Indeed, there's a new version 2.19, although we don't see it yet in the release notes here in the forum, only directly in the play store:
* New:
- targeted Android 11 as required by Google for new updates, Android 11+ users will only be able to use Scoped Storage file access now;
- DSD and DSD sub-settings, Oversample and Follow Source Frequency settings are managed by Profile now;
- ability to clear/refresh UPnP/Chromecast device list in Output To and Source - + - UPnP/DLNA.
! Fixed:
- AGP affecting FRC preset.
* All other improvements and fixes (2.18.5-1 - 2.18.5-5) see on Neutron's forum.
I suggest you write to neutronmp@gmail.com and indicate this bug. Until it is solved you could use 2.18.5-5 .

Perhaps it is normal that with 2.19 the Neutron Installation uses a new directory, so you'll perhaps have to re-set the settings. But perhaps that can be avoided by manually copying the contents of the directory from its old location to the new one. Ask the developers, they'll know.

Thank you
I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, so now the music files were found.
Thanks for your suggestion of the new directory. I will try to copy the old settings

Do you know where the new directory can be found?
Most important for me is to activate my eq settings

I cant find a new folder. I started a search, but only the old folder could be found.
I have the same issue with a notes app. My lists and notes are saved, but I can't figure out where...

You'd need root (or ADB is enough, maybe). The new folder is located here /data/data/com.neutroncode.mp/files/NeutronMP
