Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Looking for something similar to Fooyin. I've been having issues with songs starting, then 4 seconds in restarting before playing all the way through. Don't seem to have this issue with anything else but I can't figure out how to fix it and I'm not particularly attached to Fooyin anyway. Have used deadbeef in the past and might switch back to it but wanted to reach out to see if anyone has other suggestions.

Ideally there would be basic tagging features and the ability to search for lyrics.

(edit: I updated Fooyin and it actually fixed the problem. Will keep the post up just in case someone suggests something I've not heard of that might suit my needs better. <3)

Audacious is my favorite music player and it still supports the old winamp skins for those feeling nostalgic. It does tagging fine, not sure if there is a lyrics plugin but it does support tons of codecs and net radio streaming.

Quick question, does Fooyin export id3 tags? I've been looking for a player or tool that exports tags in batches.

Not sure how well it fits, but I tried astra based on a lemmy thread, and it's pretty good so far

I wish they would get the rest of Clementine transferred over. I still use Clementine, it's more feature rich.

Not too bad. Is there anyway to setup crossfade?

[–] meurglys@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Probably, check the available plugins.

MPV, VLC, AIMP kid3, MiXplorer for tagging haven't played around with lyrics that much

Vinyl works good for me but hasn't been updated in a while. https://f-droid.org/packages/com.poupa.vinylmusicplayer/
