There may be other things to adapt for recent SailfishOS releases, but issue #11 (the gstreamer migration) currently prevents compiling it, so I cannot create a release to test, hence this is a crucial first step.
Hello @olf, just a small message to say that I’ve started upgrading GStreamer. Actually it’s not that much, since only affecting some parts in src/player.cpp.
Then, when running it for test (after moving from hardcoded paths to QStandardPaths), no music is shown and I get many database errors. So still work in progress. I guess some other parts need to be updated to get it running on latest Sailfish OS.
The 2016 version works on the XA2, Equalizer included. Searching for eye candy works, too (I tried Camel and Bread - not the best choices). I have a lot of compatibility packages installed from various sources. My user is nemo with a defaultuser symlink (and vice versa on newer installs).
The file selector is trapped inside the home directory but symlinking the SD card works (I put it inside Music). Any path can be added in the conf file ~/.config/cepiperez/flowplayer.conf.
Many thanks to you all, special thanks to @dcaliste for the two pull requests, one of which resolves the gstreamer migration addressed here, the other one hardcoded /home/nemo paths.
I will try to create a release for testing the upcoming weekend.
Strange, would you be able to run it from the command line ? As a start, just flowplayer at the prompt would be enough and gives details on what is wrong.

Yeah, don’t run apps as root. Do it as defaultuser.
And the original error shows that the package providing org.nemomobile.mpris is not installed.
Try installing:
devel-su pkcon install mpris-qt5-qml-plugin
and then run it again.
@olf probably a dependency update is needed in the .spec - although usually rpmbuild should detect qml imports and add the correct dependencies as Requires: lines
XA2, 32-bit. I’m being extremely critical and give it 10 out of 10. Migrating from Cepi’s version was a piece of cake: after starting and closing the new version (to see what the new locations are), move/copy/symlink the conf and db files from ~/.config/cepiperez/ to ~/.config/flowplayer/flowplayer/ and move the files in ~/.cache/flowplayer/ to ~/.cache/flowplayer/flowplayer. For some reason the active conf file is now in cepiperez and the active database in flowplayer.
10 III, 64-bit. After a successfull migration from 32-bit nemo to 64-bit defaultuser I give it 11/10. I used rsync -rtuv over WiFi to copy the FlowPlayer files and the media-art cache (slow but elegant) and created symlinks so that the paths match - maybe I should look into SQLite3 to be able to fix the paths…
It would be nice to be able to add artist and album pics from file - not all local amateur bands show up in the search, and for some Joe Jackson albums I was offered pics of Michael Jackson’s dad.
After installing the mpris plugin, the app starts up with a nice UI but without any content. Feedback from the terminal:
