I currently use 2.95 and see no reason to update. But I listen rarely mp3's in the last years.

Foodbar 2000 FTW. https://www.foobar2000.org/ https://www.foobar2000.org/ Tiny, fast, simple, does the job. There's an Android version too, which is my go-to audio player, because of its simplicity. Both FOSS.

  Fairly certain that fb2k has never been FOSS or can you point to where that's not the case as that'd be far more interesting than the point of this thread. -dro

    Oh! My bad. I mistook the SDK and projectM source download links for the app itself. I apologise for the misleading comment.

      Is all good. -dro

  Haven't tried Foodbar :) I use Foobar on my PC daily but didn't even know it was available on Android, so thanks! Musicolet is also a great Android player without all the BS (ex: can run mp3 files copied to the device with no internet connnection)

    Blast. Didn't even notice. Sorry!

  Yeah, but does it really whip the llama's ass?

      I didn't realize until today that Wesley Willis was also a visual artist[0], and surprisingly good. [0]: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=wesley+willis+art&t=brave&iax=images&ia=images https://duckduckgo.com/?q=wesley+willis+art&t=brave&iax=imag...

  Winamp has a built-in function to double the pixels, so it's actually quite usable on 4K as-is.

    It only works for the main window. The library window doesn't work with it.

      It does with WACUP -dro

Same here, using Winamp 2.95 on a HiDPI screen as my main audio player. The best feature that it seems no other player has reproduced yet is being able to hit the J key to do an instant search for a song, with 0 latency: the search narrows down the songs as fast as you hit the keys. But I've noticed that there are now a few files that sound scratch when played, perhaps they're 48 kHz or something...

  Same thing in Clementine, except you don't even have to press J. Just type your search when the window is focused and the filter bar will catch the keys. This can be disabled too.
