selectbox options cannot be empty

Error message

selectbox options cannot be empty: {key}

What it means

stable_selectbox() is a WebUI helper that wraps Streamlit selectbox with stable business values as options (to survive reruns and language switches). It raises ValueError when the options list is empty, because a selectbox with zero options cannot render or keep state. The empty list almost always means an upstream data source (e.g. available voices, songs, providers) produced nothing at render time.

Solutions

1. Check why the upstream list is empty: e.g. for song/BGM pickers ensure resource/songs or storage/bgm actually contains readable files
2. Supply a sensible non-empty fallback or default option list at the call site instead of passing a possibly-empty generator result
3. If empty is legitimately possible, guard the call site: skip rendering the selectbox (and show an informative message) when options is empty rather than calling the helper

Example fix

# before
stable_selectbox(tr("Background Music"), songs, songs[0] if songs else None, key="bgm_song")

# after
if not songs:
    st.info(tr("No background music available. Upload a song first."))
else:
    stable_selectbox(tr("Background Music"), songs, songs[0], key="bgm_song")

options = list(options)
if not options:
    st.info("No options available for this control yet.")
    return  # skip rendering instead of raising

def has_select_options(options) -> bool:
    """Narrow before calling stable_selectbox."""
    return bool(list(options or []))

try:
    value = stable_selectbox(label, options, default_value, key=key)
except ValueError as exc:
    if "selectbox options cannot be empty" in str(exc):
        st.warning(f"{label}: no options available")
        value = None
    else:
        raise

When it happens

Trigger: Any call stable_selectbox(label, options=[], ...) — e.g. the list of BGM songs from storage/bgm + resource/songs is empty, a provider list filters to zero entries, or a config directory yields no items — while the page is being rendered.

Common situations: Fresh install with resource/songs and storage/bgm empty so the BGM picker has no candidates; a config file or directory the options derive from is missing/renamed; a filter (language, provider availability) removes every option; environment where a listing API returns nothing.
