Summary: Aqualung is a music player for the GNU/Linux operating system
Description:
Aqualung is a music player for the GNU/Linux operating system. It plays audio files from your filesystem and has the feature of inserting no gaps between adjacent tracks. It also supports high quality sample rate conversion between the file and the output device, when necessary. Almost all sample-based, uncompressed formats (eg. WAV, AIFF, AU etc.) are supported. Files encoded with FLAC (the Free Lossless Audio Codec), Ogg Vorbis, MPEG Audio (including the infamous MP3 format) and MOD files (MOD, S3M, XM, IT, etc.) are also supported. The program can play the music through OSS, ALSA or the JACK Audio Connection Kit. Aqualung supports the LADSPA 1.1 plugin standard. You can use any suitable plugin to enhance the music you are listening to. Other features of the program: internally working volume and balance controls (not touching the soundcard mixer), multiple skin support, random seeking during playback, track repeat, list repeat and shuffle mode (besides normal playback). It will come up in the same state as it was when you closed it, including playback modes, volume & balance settings, currently processing LADSPA plugins, window sizes, positions & visibility, and other miscellaneous options. You can control any running instance of the program remotely from the command line (start, stop, pause etc.). Remote loading or enqueueing soundfiles as well as complete playlists is also supported. In addition to all this, Aqualung provides a so-called Music Store that is an XML-based music database, capable of storing various metadata about music on your computer (including, but not limited to, the names of artists, and the titles of records and tracks). You can (and should) organize your music into a tree of Artists/Records/Tracks, thereby making life easier than with the all-in-one Winamp/XMMS playlist.
