[SOLVED] lollypop doesn't import songs

I have changed the directory in preference tab in lollypop, but still it doesn't recognizes any songs
Also when i right click the song file and select open with lollypop, lollypop app opens but song is not shown in the app and does not play.

that doesn't install the optional dependencies. You probably want at least gst-plugins-good,-base,-ugly  maybe bad , libav is likely not necessary for normal audio formats.

thanks a lot!!!! this fixed the issue!
By the way pacman does install dependencies right? I saw many other packages install while installing lollypop from pacman

Yes, pacman does resolve hard (i.e. non-optional) dependencies. However, it doesn't install optional dependencies, but it does list them upon installing a package (depending on whether said package has any).

No close, edit first post, prepend [SOLVED] to the title, like other finished topics, where one is not searching anymore for an answer.
