just "add to current playlist", or do you require some sort of submenu to choose from a number of playlists to add to?

IIRC, Banshee allowed me to right-click on a selected or currently playing track and save it to a new or current playlist. If this is possible using Audacious or Clementine, I haven't figured out how do it yet.

and export to a file for safe keeping.
that would seem an important feature, yes.
i don't have any answers for you, i think i'm just hopping onto your question here.

Thank you for doing so! It looks like I've got some homework to do...

I'am assuming by using a trick similar to that you would get needed functionality.
edit: Notes.

Thanks again! This will do it:

john@helium:~$ skt=/tmp/tmp.YcpO4DQCEc
john@helium:~$ echo '{ "command": ["get_property", "path"] }' | socat - "$skt" | jq --raw-output '.data'

I use Deadbeef player aswell, playing Audio from archives zip/rar is one of my favorite feature of this player.
Also, playing Hi-Res audio WAV/FLAC with this player the other bonus.

If you like Foobar2000 on Windows or looking for similarties on Linux, DeaDBeef & Audacious are the most common.
Regarding Audio player CLI, ncmpcpp/mpd, cmus & moc the're most widely used.

Regards,
Nili

I use Banshee with no problems on a standard BL Helium install...

Edit: if I understand the Debian website correctly, Banshee has now been removed https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/banshee

Sadly, it does appear that Banshee has gone the way of the Passenger Pigeon. In the meantime, I'm trying to make peace with Clementine, which seems to be something worth achieving.

Although Clementine doesn't seem to be actively maintained either... Audacious is updated slightly more often.

Maybe everyone just uses music streaming services now, so there's no need for audio players.

I'm slowly converting to vinyl

I use mpd with ncmpcpp. Then again, I use a lot of CLI tools instead of GUI tools when possible

That said, I seem to recall there being some halfway decent GUI frontends that plugged into an mpd backend.

^ gmpc is at least crazy feature rich.
i've never really used it, but i remember my jaws dropping.

mpd/ncmpcpp and mpc - i like terminal

Jimbo_G · 2018-11-30 20:27:02

I've been playing with mpd / ncmpcpp and had trouble getting it to work. Luckily I found cloverskull's tutorial here: https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic.php?id=1637

which worked perfectly
