i'm looking for a music player that covers these features: has an UI similar to spotify or at least that's pretty looking (optional tbh) compatibility with thumbnail toolbar buttons (so i can pause or skip to the next song) capable of playing local music (if possible online free services as well like deezer and such) the ability to show lyrics of songs (if the lyrics are embedded onto the song) capable of creating playlists (idk what others features to mention) currently i'm using Harmonoid and it's great but i bet there's even better players out there

forgot to mention that i also tried Dopamine it is great as well, recently tried Astra and damn it looks great but the resource usage in exchange of its prettyness comes with a cost i've looked at others you've mentioned and i didn't like them that much so i'm currently staying with Harmonoid although some of its features are limited by a paywall sadly

Do you know of any others? I'd be curious to try them out.

Author of Harmonoid here, what dissatisfies you ;) ?

it looks great but lyrics never sync to the song and it uses online lyrics rather than the ones included in the file

I've tested several (Audion, Dopamine, Foobar, Harmonoid, Clementine, MusicBee, Nora), but so far I've only found one that suits me: Astra (https://astramusic.dev/). There is Feishin (https://github.com/jeffvli/feishin), but it's a self-hosted application; if you don't have a media server available to set it up, it's not worth it. Edit : If there are others, I would be curious to know about them.

No se que dirán los expertos... Pero yo uso la salida del Motherboard de la PC, el SPDIF de Realtek, al Home Theater (Muteki 5.2Ch)... Luego de configurar el sonido para aprovechar tanto los canales, como el bitrate; en mi caso 24Bits a 192kbps, que es lo máximo que soporta el Home segun el manual de instrucciones. Al final, uso varios programas, el CyberLink POWER DVD 24 (de pago), para todo lo que sea peliculas (aunque tambien sirve para reproducir audio), ya sean en BluRay, o simplemente desde Netflix, se ajusta a Dolby bla bla bla automáticamente... Para música no soy de usar los servicios online, yo tengo todo en el Almacenamiento local, y tengo de todo, desde WMA, M4A y WAV... y uso AIMP configurado por defecto desde "DirectSound", sólo porque me gusta controlar el volumen desde un dial analógico en el teclado, dejando el Home al Máximo... Es una pena que este subreddit no permita imagen, sino subía capturas de las configuraciones. Eso es todo... Saludos! 💪🏻🇦🇷💪🏻🇦🇷💪🏻
