saya mendapat pertanyaan dari salah seorang teman difacebook yang baru saja migrasi dari Windows ke Linux, entah migrasi benar2 migrasi atau hanya sekedar mencicipi cita rasa linux saja. Pertanyaan sederhana yang diajukan adalah “Kalau mau install winamp di linux gimana mas?” Sontak saya sedikit snewen mendapat pertanyaan semacam ini, karena seolah olah ingin memindahkan semua aplikasi yang berjalan di windows ke Linux. Namun demikian saya sadar untuk membangun masyarakat sadar akan penting nya peranan FOSS, saya harus mengelus dada dalam menjawab pertanyaan semacam ini.
Berikut saya coba untuk membuat daftar pemutar audio yang bisa berjalan mulus di Linux dan tidak kalah yahuut dengan Winamp tentunya
1. abraca = Abraca is a client for the XMMS2 music player. It is designed with collections in mind, which makes managing your music a breeze
2. amarok = Amarok is a powerful music player with an intuitive interface. It makes playing the music you love and discovering new music easier than ever before and it looks good doing it! Amarok is based on the powerful Qt4 / KDE4 technology platform and nicely integrates with KDE desktop
3. aqualung = 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
4. ardour-i686 = Ardour is a multichannel hard disk recorder (HDR) and digital audio workstation (DAW). It can be used to control, record, edit and run complex audio setups. For more information see the description of the ardour package or <http://ardour.org/>
5. ario = Ario is a full featured client for MPD (Music Player Daemon). The interface used to browse the library is inspired by Rhythmbox but Ario aims to be much lighter and faster. It uses GTK2, avahi for MPD server detection and curl to download remote files (like cover arts and lyrics). Various plugins are provided like audioscrobbler/last.fm submission or multimedia keys support
6. audacious = Audacious is a fork of beep-media-player which supports winamp skins and many codecs.
7. bangarang = Offers a media—audio and video—player with a lightweight interface. Integrates with the Nepomuk Social Semantic Desktop, supports command line arguments, can play CDs and DVDs and audio streams. It also has basic keyboard shortcuts and allows users to manually manage playlists.
8. Banshee = Banshee is a media management and playback application for the GNOME desktop, allowing users to import audio from CDs, search their library, create playlists of selections of their library, sync music to/from iPods and other media devices, play and manage video files and burn selections to a CD.
9. decibel-audio-player = Decibel is a GTK+ audio player which aims at being very straightforward to use by mean of a very clean and user friendly interface.
10. exaile = Exaile is a media player aiming to be similar to KDE’s Amarok, but for GTK+. It incorporates many of the cool things from Amarok (and other media players) like automatic fetching of album art, handling of large libraries, lyrics fetching, and last.fm support. In addition, Exaile also includes a shoutcast directory browser, tabbed playlists (so you can have more than one playlist open at a time), and other useful features
11. Fluendo = This product contains plug-ins which allow you to play certain proprietary audio and video formats. These plug-ins are not included in the default Ubuntu distribution because they are not free software. Ubuntu is driven by strong support for the principles of free and open source software, and these principles govern what we can and will include in Ubuntu. However, we recognise the common need for plug-ins such as these, and offer them here to provide a safe and legal way for our users to play back video and audio in the formats they wish. These plug-ins automatically integrate with GStreamer, the multimedia framework that Ubuntu uses for video and sound applications. Namun sayang fluendo ini adalah aplikasi berbayar
12. Qmmp= Nah aplikasi yang satu ini benar-benar mirip dengan winamp, mungkin bagi penikmat winamp, aplikasi yang satu ini cocok untuk anda
13. Dan masih banyak lagi yang lain nya, silahkan explore lebih jauh lagi untuk mendapatkan aplikasi lebih banyak
semoga bermanfaat
