a good music player


Recommended Posts

currently i use foobar2000 cause it has excellent asio support in case i want to listen thru the audio interface with bit-perfect playback and all that jazz.

 

but if i wanna listen to lets say 6 folders of music, and put it all to repeat, same track can come again and again. which is really annoying. if a track is played, i want that track to be flagged to not play again in that session. to my knowledge Winamp did just that.. i guess i should go back to winamp?

oh, and also in foobar2000, if you hit forward, the next random track plays which is expected, but if you hit Back - it just stops. so clearly its not made to listen to folders of music.

Any tips?

 

edit: im sorry, i dont mean repeat i mean RANDOM

Use "Shuffle (tracks)" instead of random and you won't get the same track until all others in the playlist have played. Of course the thing here is that fb2k in shuffle mode keeps an internal playlist of the tracks in your actual playlist, so when all tracks have played you get the same shuffled order of tracks again. You can of course counter this by holding shift when opening the playback menu and selecting "reshuffle".

does nobody listen to local music files anymore 😃

I listen to about nothing else than local music files. Fuck streaming, I have too much music on my hard drives to have time or energy to listen to all of that.
