jesus that looks horrible
It's cool and all that it's finally being ported to SOMETHING other than Windows but I doubt Linuxfags will be happy with this.
>>54462598
It works fine with Wine anyways.
>>54462521
Does it support all dem search options? Plugin support? If not, what's the fucking point. I'm not using shit just because of a logo(I'm looking at you, ifags).
Apparently it's also available for iShit
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/foobar2000/id1072807669
Well, so far it's kinda shitty. It's showing one of my albums as about 20 or so because they all have different artists. If I wanted a Album/Artist display view, why wouldn't I have literally clicked that button?
It's shit
>>54462679
I'm not sure which looks worse.

It's pretty good, it's fast enough and quality seems good.
Unfortunately it's ugly and lacks features but that can be fixed.
Phonograph on GS5 crashes way too much so I need to switch
I can't seem to find a setting to choose what to do when an album ends. In fact the whole settings page seems rather.. scarce.

It already does ReplayGain and Gapless Playback.
Plus it's GPL and it actually has good MAterial design.
Unlike this monstrosity.
>>54463447
I've always had horrible shuffle with it.
~1200 songs and it ends up repeating after like 20 songs.
He really should change to the way Black Player does it, just shuffle all the songs into a queue and play it like that
>>54463495
There's a "continuous shuffle" option if you want truly random play queue.
>>54463526
I'll have to check it out. It was really good except for that little thing that really annoyed me, but it keeps getting better and better it seems

I don't think I've ever used a widget other than calendar and a to-do list, it's all bloat
It's actually pretty sweet.
I think after some more features and some bug testing, it might become a great player.
>>54463699
trust me, its nice to just pick up your phone and hit play.
I dont even use calendar widgets; just gmail and google keep only on my tablet
Gonna be a looong time before this is up to scratch with Poweramp, or even Phonograph.
>>54463702
yeah, it needs the tagging and album art searching features of the desktop
>>54463447
sicmu and timber are nicer imo
>>54463779
Plus a way to skip to the next album, alongside presets and power optimization
>>54463702
And copious amounts of attention from a UI designer that doesn't suck dick for fun.
>>54463920
Look, I get it, bubble icons are so 00s. But right now looks Isn't the main issue here, it's the features.
And if you really need something nice to look at, I'm sure the community will make something worthwhile.
>>54462521
well it literally has 14 ratings, so I expect more features in the future or based plugins

It's working great for me.
I just installed it (I'm used to glorious foobar on pc), along with blackplayer and vanilla music. I tried black first, then vanilla, and then foobar.
Black and vanilla are shit: can't display my cover.pngs, library indexes don't update well and can't set custom folders, can't play opus, don't let me browse files directly (I have a folder structure that suits my needs along with proper tagging, and yet this shit can't properly render either), etc.
Then I tried foobar and everything just worked out of the box with default settings: all my tags were read correctly, album covers were displayed, files were grouped right, indexes update properly and I can configure the source dirs, etc.
If I was foobar's dev I'd be saying GOML to all those other music player devs.
>Just installed it. The sound is amazing, it is closer to the sound of my CD player.
>>54463447
I tried this before, I don't like how there are colored boxes with letters in them.
Phonograph is better.
Still needs a bit of work, but overall works great and looks really nice.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kabouzeid.gramophone&hl=en
Just installed it, sounds great. Sounds about as good as my CD player and almost as good as 24 bit FLACs even at lower FLAC bitrates. The alien logo must relate to the alien technology that made foobar2000 so good!
It seems fine. I was using CleanMusic up until this point, and while it was a bit clumsy, I've gotten used to it.
I'mma try this out.
>>54463258
>over 100000$ :^)
I like AIMP more.
Didn't even read the thread. Installed via the play store on my laptop. I hope it's jizz worthy.
>>54462521
Looks like shit.
Why should I stop using Poweramp for this?
>>54465738
Totally jizz worthy. Everyone install this shit.
>>54462716
It's not shitty, you're shit at managing your track titles.
Foobar is amazing on PC because it's:
>lightweight
>customizable
>well-featured
On Android, I use GoneMAD, because it has all these three incredibly important qualities. So why would I switch to foobar on Android, if it doesn't?
>>54462802
I'm right there with you man, fuck the ricers that thinks this looks bad. It looks fucking amazing.
>>54465845
It would look OK if not for the icons
>different styles
>different sizes
>some icons don't make sense, like the ones for Genre, Style and Advanced Search
This is a GUI Design catastrophe.
Looks like shit senpai
I'll stick to Walkman, it's pretty decent.
I haven't got the play store desu, has anybody got an apk?
does android version support additional DSP/plugins ?
>>54465938
It has a lot built-in
>>54465981
i know that senpai but i want to install some additional ones and i can't see an option anywhere in settings
Apk???? Please

the problem isn't even how it looks, it's that everything is all over the fucking place, the order of those icons makes no fucking sense

I mean most of the music I love by good artists I listen to the whole album, but most losts of songs dont fit in that category
>>54468969
I can never do this. I'll listen to the full album and maybe, maybe, skip a particular song if I don't feel like hearing it at that time, but the whole idea of playlists just doesn't feel right for me
>>54462521
there's literally a dozen of foobar apps to chose from and yours is the shittiest one.

I was hype for this years ago then I trial'd/bought Poweramp and never looked back.
Holy fucking shit they even managed to make it look ugly
>>54469716
It looks fine though, and for the target user of foobar it's not a problem.
They do need to give you the option to bloat it as much as you want, maybe in the future.
>>54462521

Finally, what fucking too them so long? And why is there no linux port?
