About

fooyin is a music player built around customisation. Arrange its interface from a blank canvas, start with a preset layout, and tailor its widgets and shortcuts to suit you. Browse and filter your library, edit tags and artwork, and organise tracks into playlists or autoplaylists. Play local music, archives, Audio CDs, and internet radio with gapless playback. Shape the sound with ReplayGain, fading, and DSP chains, or convert audio between formats. Extend the player with plugins providing additional audio formats, widgets, visualisations, and scrobbling services. FooScript enables advanced display formatting, library queries, autoplaylists, and custom widget behaviour.
