try harder please

>>61196421
you can't suggest foobar to people because they instantly get turned off by how nerdy it is

>>61196410
Try musicbee. I use both foobar2k (for analyzing music) and music bee (for listening like a normie).

>>61196553
>musicbee
that actually looks decent holy moly

>>61196410
I like audacious personally but you sound like a fucking retard normie who would dismiss it for looking like a "90s" program and since you even mentioned groove and itunes you should probably just kill yourself

1. nothing really wrong with foobar. if it wasnt bloat and a botnet.
2. ffmpeg and acme are cross platform; available for osx, linux, bsd, windows
3. itunes is ok
4. gnome music and deadbeef are trash and are bad clones of programs mentioned above

So? You don't look at it 99% of the time .

i use foobar because i set it up 8 years ago and juswerks

is aimp any good on desktop? i use it on my phone and it seems alright

The absolute king of music players used to be Winamp but then jews killed it and now we are left with scraps like musicbee, foobar and other trash

Why can you only use software you can recommend to people? Do you have some kinda mental disorder where you can't use a product without spending your free time advertising that product to your friends?

>freezes if coverart too big
How fucking big do you need the coverart anyways? I could set it to 1000x1000 and it would work. It would be stupid but it would work.

How is it even nerdy? Just download it and fucking use it. Or use something like Columns UI and you can get an easy set-up. If you want it more fine tuned yes you do have to use a few little scripting language but its not hard to look up.

You know you can make foobar look as gay as you want, right?

>>61196421
He's not even trolling. I used to use GUI players, now using mpd+ncmpcpp. Foobar2k is ass-backwards as fuck.

It's extraordinarily ugly when default, and customization requires learning what amounts to a DSL for a fucking music player. If I was that autistic about a >>fucking music player<< I'd just code my own leveraging mpd or alternatively an audio engine like gstreamer or libvlc.

You'd have to be pretty ignorant and/or retarded to use foobar2k for anything.

>>61198342
Sad to see that. All devs seemed to have lost any interest. I tried to help out with a new backend a while ago but no one wanted to do anything, and in fact some people were directly opposed to having any sort of architecture, complaining their codebase was a mess but rejecting anything other than piling hacks upon hacks.

Can't say I'm surprised it happened, but didn't expect it to happen so soon.

If foobar2k is too difficult for you to learn, then maybe computers aren't for you.

It takes 15 minutes from installing to customizing if you have an IQ north of 80.

>>61206682
It's not difficult, it's absolutely pointless.

There's no acceptable middle ground between an OOTB experience and just writing your own music player reusing the wide ecosystem of open source parts out there.

It's like non-programmers want to pretend they know how to program.

>>61206706
It's not pointless; it gives you a framework to customize your music player to your liking. You just have to give enough of a shit to actually customize the player. If your prime directive is being a lazy sack of shit, then pick another player. If you want a customized music player experience, then you're gonna have to put in a bit of time and effort (oh no!)

You are too fussy and picky.

I use Groove and it's fine. No ads. I don't use tags much, you must have a lot of free time.
