Full description
It features a client-server model, allowing multiple (even simultaneous!) user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexible media library to organize your music. List of features currently offered by XMMS2: Client-server model: * Allows XMMS2 to have various multiple interfaces (as clients). o Command line interfaces o GTK clients (matching GNOME & XFCE4 look and feel) o KDE clients (matching KDE look and feel) * Network transparency means you can run and control XMMS2 remotely, (e.g. run XMMS2 on your 'media box' and control it over network using a bluetooth-enabled PDA (TCP)) Wide format support: * Can play FLAC, mp3, MOD, SID, speex, ogg vorbis, wave files. * Clean separation of transport and decoder subsystems Allows for more flexible access to media. (e.g. play mp3 files from a Samba share without having to mount it on the local filesystem) Medialib: Database-driven media library stores metadata about songs as they're played, so songs can be quickly recalled and new playlists easily made.
