The main design philosophy is that the user knows how they want to organize their music best the software is therefore built to be fully customizable and extensible using regular expressions and boolean logic. Quod Libet is a cross-platform free and open-source audio player, tag editor and library organizer. Heck, if you don't need a new player, give it a shot-you may be pleasantly surprised.Screenshot of Quod Libet's paned main browser window (dark theme).Ĥ.3.0 (22 February 2020 2 years ago ( )) If you need a new player, give this one a shot. So far it's very snappy on my middle of the road system.
#Quod libet install
I was a little reluctant to bring in a bunch of gnome libraries, but the install was suprisingly short. Furthermore, I've had no issues whatsoever (fyi, I'm using a Mepis distro at the moment with KDE). Anyway, I think I prefer the layout to Amarok's (you can see the album art in your collection, which I like). There's a plug-in for fetching album art, but I already had this in place from when I switched my collection from Windows. My install was painless, and it pulled in my library very quickly. If you haven't tried this player/library manager, I highly recommend it. Because of this, I decided to give quod libet a whirl. Additionally, my latest install (I try out different distributions pretty regularly) is not behaving well with my music collection. It still clips off the last few seconds of the final song in my playlist.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to work out all of the wrinkles from my install of Amarok (and I've given it a big effort).


I have been using Amarok for quite a while, and I hadn't seen anything that looked competitive.
