Open new folder in Puddletag

The path to open a folder where I have the movies would be: "computer/media/jesus/samsung SSD 870 DV 1 TB/películas".
I can't find the path in Puddletag.

It works with an older version.

You probably installed the Flatpak version of the package, as it's offered by default in the Software store. To confirm this, search for it again and it should list the source under the install/uninstall button.
Note that there may be a second result entry when searching for it, as different sources sometimes create duplicates like this:

Assuming you have indeed installed this package as a Flatpak, you need to install another one called Flatseal, which you can use to grant additional permissions so that it reads the file system.

Choose All System Files to give unrestricted access. Or, under "Other Files" you can add a new entry copying the file to the external drive that you're using.

I assume you downloaded this directly from their website? That would explain why it works in that case, as it's not using the Flatpak format. Depending on what you need to give access to, you'd have to select it under Filesystem.

I installed "Flatseal" and granted permissions and the problem has been solved.
I have had this problem before with other programs and other distributions, I am glad you have helped me.

It looks like their downloads page is not kept up to date. If you want to download the latest build without resorting to Flatpaks, you can head over to their code repository where they have all versions available:
