Post your music player.
I exclusively listen to music with aesthetic cover art.

Dear foobar users what plug in do you use to get album art (like musicbee does from last.fm or google)
>>60933840
i just strip all embed artwork from tracks (foobar 1 click function) and manually add cover.jpg with highest resolution image from google to album's folder
>>60932513
>>60933260
they look nice

>>60932513

>>60935861

>I exclusively listen to music with aesthetic cover art
I hate you. Fuck off.
>>60936222
it's about the whole package bub
>>60932513
aesthetic isn't an adjective
>>60936323
your dum
not listening to tunes rn but here
I'm not intelligent enough to build my own skin.
>>60936222
Cover art is usually indicative of good music, aesthetic choices are important
:^)
>>60937347
you suck
>>60932513
Do you use Columns UI, OP? Those playback buttons are nice, I want them.
>>60937347
literally retarded
Haven't touched it in 3-4 years I think. And I doubt I'll ever change it.

If you care about your music, you care about your artwork

plebs
the blue laptop in the back holds my music collection, runs mpd and ftp (bftpd), as well as a conky thing I made for info
I mostly control it using ncmpcpp from my arch box (pictured)
>>60939436
Link to conky config?
>>60939436
looks like I spoke too soon
hi

>>60939452
never put it up before, sorry it's a bit clumsy
heres the conky config

and the script for fetching album art
http://pastebin.com/Q62sGsvS
>>60939506
Thanks, I'll see if I can port it to cmus. Been meaning to make something similar but I have very little experience with conky.
>>60939533
The by far most difficult thing was getting album art to work. MPD doesn't handle album art at all, and doesn't output path to the music file either, so I had to use a script to figure out the path for the album folder from outputs from the mpc cli utility.
If the path doesn't correspond perfectly to the metadata - no artwork. Luckily I just do Artist/Album/*.mp3, and no genre or year sorting folders.
>>60939582
cmus is a bit better in that regard from what I understand, you can give it scripts to run everytime something changes in playback (for scrobbling etc). Never gave mpd a fair try, tried it when I didn't have any media player on it and couldn't get ALSA to work with it.
>>60939658
nice cat
>>60936157
The only good-looking music player. Foobar is ugly, iTunes is bloated slow shit, and I don't care about the others.
>>60939716
>foobar is ugly
You know you don't have to use the stock theme?
>>60939700
>nice cat
Thanks.
Does musicbee generally look like shit out of the box or do you guys put actual effort into that?
>>60939861

That honestly looks worse than anything posted so far in the thread.
>>60940038
At least it's free.
>>60939983
From the player and the music being played by it you can just tell this man wanks into his own mouth.
>>60940064
so is musicbee plen
>>60940064
And? I don't give a shit about your "Free as in autism" bullshit if it's going to look like that.
>>60940072
So what if I do? Plenty of nutrition and gains.

>>60940744

I lost my whole library and I'm still recovering my shit. My favourite artists are BoC, Lone, Silkie, Quest, Skream, Zomby... Generic as fuck
>>60940789

It isn't. The license does not grant these four conditions to you:
>The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
>The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
>The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
>The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
>>60940993
I actually didn't post a screen shot at all.
>>60940993
>implying i'm hampus

how did you even manage to turn your computer on
>>60939436
do u have a pic of ur room as ur wallpaper??????
fucking pathetic lamo
>>60940997
>>The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
It plays music and can put music on my phone. It is running how I wish.
>>The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
why do I need that?
>>The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
Who cares? They can just download it themselves if they want it the lazy fucks.
>>The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
Meh.
You just like to be a contrarian and humblebrag about using linux.

MusicBee users in a nutshell.
I use shell scripts and mplayer/mpv to play music my music from computer. Still looking for a way to play my music on iphone easily from my database on my unix server.
For playlists I use directories full of links or text files with directory lists.
Based MusicBee all day
>>60941129
Explain why I would need to study how my program works to enhance my music listening experience.
>>60941114
please fuck off with your opensource bragging back to /g/.
>>60941215
It's a right, not a requirement for the user. Without the need for studying and improving technology you would be using phonographic cylinders right now.
I stopped giving a shit about album covers. If it's actively garbage I'm not listening to it though. No matter how good it is.
am i the only one that just uses winamp and dont give a fuck about tags cover images etc... (i do when i put albums in my mp4 of course)
>>60941303
People just want an easy way to enjoy their music mango. As long as there are some open source players out there and people willing to work on studying and improving them, how is there a problem with the general population who isn't interested in the technical details not having to worry about the technical details. Just seems like a silly thing to get so mad about.
>>60941389
Maybe mad is the wrong choice in words, worked up about
Columns UI, I cba to spend hours getting it perfect. It works
