[SOLVED] Looking for an audio player; specific requirements

I've searched around and can't really find what I'm looking for in an audio player(though Audacious and Exaile come close). What I need is one with these aspects:
- Based on GTK+
- Relatively lightweight
- Skinnable
I'd like something with a look similar to the Winamp "modern" skins, rather than the classic ones, but I can't find anything like this for Linux.

This makes your request impossible.
Nothing's impossible... creativity is key. I you can't achieve the look you're looking for natively, either code something yourself or look into running winamp through wine (here's an article on running winamp through wine if you're feeling lazy).

Looking for J2ME audio or video player

Hello all,
I am looking for an audio or video Java player which can be used on Foundation of J2ME platform. It is better an open source Java player (but not a must requirement). I am wondering where can I find related sources?
regards,
George

I think there's at least a couple of small application examples in the java tutorials; why don't you start looking at:

[Solved] Looking for a simple music player

Hello there,
I'm looking for a music player for a box I'm currently building. I only need it to have a GUI, playlist support and random playing. I've thought of xmms2, but the standard package comes without GUI and I haven't found any clients with random playing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

as simple as they get:
xmms: (not xmms2!)
audacious:
audacious is a form of bmp, which is a fork of xmms... they're all basicly the same, audacious is more up to date though.

Looking for a MP3 player for audiobo

I am looking for an mp3 player that meets these requirements. Creative Labs lists like 50 mp3 plays and no easy way to compare features. So does anyone know if anyone sells anything with these features:?- bookmarking: where I can 'save' a place in a audiobook and go listen to other stuff and come back to where I left off. The 'resume' feature on some devices is not adaquete because it assumes I don't want to listen to anything else. Other devices require me to search through hours of a book to find where I left off. I need something that let's me mark a place and return when I want. - FM feature: because sometimes I want to listen to the radio and not my downloaded music or books!?- flash based: because it's lighter weight, no hard dri've to break (gb flash or upgradable flash card insert is fine)?- removable regular batteries: so that if the batteries go bad, i can get new ones and not ship it off to be opened by someone else?that's it!? is that so hard?!
Please let me know
!!! [email protected]????

portrower8,?Do a search at the top of the page for audiobooks. They have been discussed frequently.?First, you are asking for a flash player, so that limits your choices. For audiobooks that you download from NetLibrary or Overdri've, I would only use one?WITHOUT ?PlaysforSure subscription firmware. That way, the electronic library books?never expire, until you delete them yourself.?I prefer to keep my audiobooks separate from my music. I love the Zen Nano plus GB or the 52MB. These days you can buy the GB for $65-70 from Amazon or Creative. These players can hold four or fi've?audiobooks. Granted they don't have bookmarking as such, but you just?do a pause and?turn it off and the?player starts up where you left off.?Just remember if you buy a bigger flash player with subscription ability for your music, any electronic library audiobook will expire?after 2 days. Are planning on just buying all your audiobooks? Have you checked into the new Zen V and?Zen V plus to use for your music??Best wishes,luvmyrescuedogs

Looking for cheap Audio converter RAM to MP3 ?

Subject : Looking for cheap Audio converter RAM to MP3 ?
Dear All, We would like to convert a RealAudio "ram" file to Mp3. Is there a "free / shareware" pogram to do this ? Otherwise, what should I do ?
Thnaks. Kevin in Lille

I personally do not know of a program to convert like you request but you might check out http://www.versiontracker.com for programs. "WireTap Pro" can capture audio from any internal source ( http://www.ambrosiasw.com/news/ ) Of course, you'd need a player for the RAM file...

Please Help - I am looking for an mp3 player that has the following features

Hi, I am looking for an mp3 player that has the following features:
1) Either a 30GB or more HDD, OR a sd OR a micro SD card slot for a 2GB card. (Note, I can buy an adapter so my sd cards fit into a compact flash slot. However, I did look at the Zen Vision M but I didn't see how to delete tracks from?my playlists.)
2) I need to be able to delete tracks in my playlists that I create in Windows Media Player (.wpl or .m3u format).
3) I need to be able to copy these updated playlists back to my pc, either with the usb cable or SD / microSD card.
Which products meet my needs? I li've in California, USA.
Thanks,
Rick

Thanks! I did not know that. I have been looking for an mp3 player for a long time & did not realize the one I wanted was right in front of my nose! [ at Walmart]

Looking for MP3 Loop Player

I'm looking for an MP3 Player for my 8320 that plays loops accurately and seamlessly: it needs to play the entire MP3 and immediately starts playing it again when it reached the end, repeating the process indefinitely, without any gaps or split-second pauses during playback.
Any suggestions?

did you check the options for your Media application? there are repeat modes.
you can also create a playlist (on your desktop, it's easier) that contains several times the same file.
The search box on top-right of this page is your true friend, and the public Knowledge Base too:

Looking for a .ISO player

I am looking for a .iso player that will play all the movies contained in a
single .iso image file. VLCMediaPlayer will only play the first movie. You
wind up with more than one movie if you have ripped a DVD that has, for
instance, move than one episode on it.

Use DaemonTools to mount your *.iso as a virtual disc or use e.g. WinRAR to extract all separate files.

Looking for a music player with a very specific feature

I've been looking for this ever since I completely left windows behind, and six months later, it's killing me that I haven't found the right music player.
Obviously, I used to use foobar2000. The greatest thing about it for was the 'facets' extension which added customizable filter panels. The MOST GREATEST THING about it was that you could combine directory and tag sorting, which means I could sort my REDICULOUSLY HUGE music library by Folder/Folder/Album, which corresponded to Genre/Artist/Album. For various finicky little reasons, sorting it by folder was much more effective than by tags.
Does anyone know any media player which allows this?

Hi, I was a foobar2000 user too. It was driving me crazy that I couldn't find a good replacement, but i've found one. It's quodlibet. Unfortunately right now it's not possible to do Folder/Folder/Album in the panels, but QL has a 'filesystem view' for this. Other than that it can do the good stuff:
- freeform tagging
- freeform filtering
It means that you can set whatever tag you want to and then put it in the panels, song list or search bar. It has conditional tags too. For me it was Genre/Style/<albumartist|<albumartist>|<artist>>/Album, but I do not use the panels anymore. I do not have to see my library everytime I play some music. These days I'm using the Album List with the search bar and doing stuff like &(style=goa,#(playcount<1),#(discogs_votes>=50),#(year <= 1998)) makes my day. Replaygain with auto-select between 'track' and 'album' based on current view and play order is a neat feature too. ;-)

Suggestions for new audio player for

Hi all.
I am now in the market for a new digital audio player. I had a Creative Zen Micro, that succumbed to the infamous headphone jack. Now, due to Walmart's almighty warranty service program, I have a check for $250.
I have been looking at the Vision M and the Micro Photo, but am unsure of which I would like. I'm inclined toward the Vision, because of the video capability and the 30 gig dri've. But I have a feeling the Micro Photo will be perfect for me.
Does anyone have any advice besides search the forums and do my own research? I am already doing that, and still not sure. Also, have there been any major problems that are affecting these players?
Any other digital audio player recommendations will be welcome also. Anything with greater than or equal to a 5 gigabyte capacity, and plays audio well.
Thanks much!
Andy
Also, if this might matter - I have a spare battery from my old Zen Micro, and I have all the accessories (cable, power cord, etc). Would that mean I should be more inclined to the ZMP?Message Edited by moparhemifan on 0-3-2006 03:50 AM

Really it comes down to features. If 8Gb isn't enough space, the decision is made for you. If you want video support, decision is made for you
Both players are relati'vely new, and the problems affecting both won't have come to the fore yet (if there are any). The big let down with the Micro Photo for some has been the inability to play music and look at photos, and no album art. The Vision:M though has both of these functions. I know what player I would buy!

Looking for a Music Player App with FTP

I've been looking for a App that will play/stream music files from
a FTP site (or personal cloud)
anybody seen an App that does this?
thanks!

Most cloud music players will only access their cloud folders, not
an indépendant FTP folder.
I did find one that kinda works - DeadOn Player.
but it's buggy and crashing.

Looking for a music player app for the ipad

Musician looking for music player app to play my sound library
Folders, set lists......ect.....
Must be able to automatically pause between songs, not like iTunes where you have to manually pause
I have to time to manually pause between tracks since i use this for my live performances.
All thoughts and advice welcome
Doc

Try making a 5 second blank .mp3 file or however long you need your pause to be between songs, then create a playlist and insert the blank .mp3 between each song. Just a thought to help save some money. I believe the DJay app allows this though, but you might want to ask the developer on their website before purchasing just to verify.
Good luck,
