Zik – Audio player based on gstreamer

November 9, 2010 · General · Email This Post

ZiK is an audio player based on gstreamer. It uses the path of your audio files instead of a music library. Audio files are shown on the left panel as they would be in a browser. The right panel is dedicated to the playlist. Both panels can be shown or hidden. ZiK uses your GTK theme. All formats supported by gstreamer, CDs, and webradios can played.

Features

* Play files, playlists, webradios and audio cds,
* search in folders or in playlists,
* edit playlist,
* edit file's tag,
* use your gtk theme for button...

Install Zik in ubuntu

Open the terminal and run the following commands

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vinc-mai/zik/ubuntu
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zik

In order to play cd and extra file format, you should install zik with the suggested packages.

sudo aptitude --with-recommends install zik

    Nice and simple. Just the way I like it. No bloated music library.

    I guess it makes sense only to a developer that still listens to Brian Adamas in 2012 (!)
