Only mp3 files are recognized. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Drop file in ~/Music (mp3, m4a, flac) 2. Open Gnome Music 3. It will not find flac and m4a files.
Are tainted repo activate?

no it isn't. But flac is open source. Need me to install from tainted?
task-gnome-minimal requires: - task-codec-audio - task-codec-video Both of these recommend various codecs. They are in "main" and in tainted. Tainted is for anything affected by e.g. copyright issues or patents. Various codecs are often in tainted because of patents; this despite the software usually being free software. task-codec-audio recommends gstreamer1.0-flac already from "main". Could you check if gstreamer1.0-flac is installed? If not, then maybe we aren't including it somehow.

yes it is installed. I'll pull all gstream items out and attach so you can review. Let me know if you want anything else.

Well, with Tainted in operation, I put into ~/Music: Trac3.flac Trac8.m4a Gnome Music is another of those cryptic bare Gnome applications, which starts with nothing more than "Hey DJ The contents of your Music folder will apear here" except they do not. You have to click the 'Music folder' link to see a relevant file manager window, which then did show the 2 files. $ rpm -qa | grep gstreamer | sort gstreamer1.0-a52dec-1.16.2-5.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-amrnb-1.16.2-5.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-cdparanoia-1.16.2-2.mga8 gstreamer1.0-faad-1.16.2-6.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-flac-1.16.2-4.mga8 **************** NOT tainted gstreamer1.0-gstclutter3-3.0.27-3.mga8 gstreamer1.0-lame-1.16.2-4.mga8 gstreamer1.0-libav-1.16.2-2.mga8 gstreamer1.0-ofa-1.16.2-6.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad-1.16.2-6.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-plugins-base-1.16.2-2.mga8 gstreamer1.0-plugins-good-1.16.2-4.mga8 gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly-1.16.2-5.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-pulse-1.16.2-4.mga8 gstreamer1.0-python-1.16.2-3.mga8 gstreamer1.0-soundtouch-1.16.2-6.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-soup-1.16.2-4.mga8 gstreamer1.0-tools-1.16.2-4.mga8 gstreamer1.0-vp8-1.16.2-4.mga8 gstreamer1.0-x264-1.16.2-5.mga8.tainted gstreamer1.0-x265-1.16.2-6.mga8.tainted lib64gstreamer1.0_0-1.16.2-4.mga8 lib64gstreamer-plugins-base1.0_0-1.16.2-2.mga8 lib64gstreamer-plugins-base-gir1.0-1.16.2-2.mga8 phonon4qt5-gstreamer-4.10.0-1.mga8 phonon-gstreamer-common-4.10.0-1.mga8 Assigning to the Gnome team.

Okay - go figure - in latest beta install on intel it works now. I am suggesting we close this.
