wut. My version of Rhythmbox lets you search.

Just use Clementine.

aimp4 should work with wine.

Foobar is just a UI wrapper on top of open source libraries.

cmus is king

I actually tried finding a decent audioplayer today because my Rhythmbox kept crashing (switching songs sometimes, importing Audio CDs) so I tried a couple ones today.

Deadbeef is decent and really lightweight, but very limited library capabilities ootb.

Clementine is feature-rich and pretty neat, but looks atrocious in my opinion

I've settled with Lollypop as of now which looks great, is pretty responsive but seems to have some minor bugs still. For example, it will display certain albums under "random albums" but not on the "all albums" pane. Also, no real playlist view as far as I can see so far.

Clementine
>>
Another vote for Clementine here, but I tend to just find my music with, you know, find, then throw it at mpv. Because it makes me feel 1337 af.
>>
you dont need to do any scrolling in ncmpcpp
>>
Deadbeef or banshee
>>
fuck Rhythmbox, it's like they had an expert of unintuitiveness working on the interface

Clementine is fine
>>
If you don't use Cantata, you're doing it wrong
>>
>>55054337
Clementine
>>
>>55054337
Just press ctrl+f
And install alternative toolbar for better UI
Rhythmbox is best music player for GNOME 3. Clementine is great but it's QT not GTK. It will look very bad on GNOME.
>>
>>55054337
Even in CLI music players like MOC I can type "/" and perform searches.
>>
>>55054337
DeaDBeeF and MPV
>>
I honestly use winamp in wine. I know, I know, but almost all media players in linux just suck.
>>
>>55057661
Seconded
>>
>>55056256
Wine wrapper available on AUR. Install Arch.
>>
Nothing beats mpd + ncmpcpp

READ THE FUCKING WIKI

>looks atrocious
I never understood that. Audio players are supposed to sit at the background playing music. What does it matter how it looks like?
>>
>>55054337
winamp
>>
>>55058692
seems a bit bloated.
Why do you like it?
>>
>>55054337
Just don't use linux based distro, they are the BOTNET.
Just use windows and musicbee.

I think it's pretty nice but why don't you try with cantata, tomahawk, banshee, amarok, audacious or sayonara player?
>>
>>55054337
For music and browsing library: cmus
For just playing some media, like video: mplayer
>>
>>55058308
install audacious and download this skin
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Winamp+Classic+skin+for+Audacious?content=135799
save it here /usr/share/audacious/Skins
go to "view" -> "interface preferences", and change skin
