I have never seen a player more comfortable than the good old amarok .

The current version of Amarok2 is something completely different, and does not cause such admiration ...

But there was no desire to drag libraries from kde3 along.



Having tried many players, I liked exaile most of all (but it is GTK)

After Amarok it is impossible to look towards MPD , xmms and other things a la Winamp.

And here appears what gives hope.

The Clementine project, a modern music player and audio library, fork the Amarok 1.4 music player with some features.

')

The task of the Clementine project is to repeat as accurately as possible all the possibilities of Amarok 1.4,

using the modern Qt 4 library API.



Currently implemented:

* Ability to search and play files from your local music collection;

* Support for listening to Internet radio, support services Last.fm and SomaFM;

* Support for editing tags in MP3 and OGG files;

* Distribution of binary builds for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux platforms (Ubuntu9.10 and Fedora13);

* Enable the standard system for displaying notifications on the desktop (via libnotify on Linux and Growl on Mac OS X).



In the near future implementation is expected:

* Automatically add files from the disk to the collection;

* Support for iPod and MP3-players;

* Ability to read and write playlists;

* Means for loading and displaying album covers;

* Support autocomplete tags.
