MP is a module player for Linux. It is able to play 18 module formats (such as mod, xm, s3m, and it).

MP is actually a single executable file (mp).

To install MP on your system, just type make and wait for the compilation process to end. Once compiled, you may test MP by typing ./mp . If it is working, and good enough for you, install MP on your system by typing make install. This will copy the binary file mp to the /usr/local/bin directory.

Ambisonics Player is a simple player for ambisonics files. Ambisonics Player is programmed in Java, which means that (in theory) should be able to run on all platforms that java runs on. Java-sound must also be implemented on the platform.
It has been developed on Windows XP running Java 1.5, and also tested on linux 64-bit system (Gentoo AMD64) using sun-jdk-1.5.0.03. So these combinations should be fine. I dont think it works with earlier java-versions than 1.5, atleast not very good.
Main features:
- Plays 1.,2. and 3. order soundfiles in B-format.
- Files in wav,aiff,flac and ogg format supported (ogg-files caneven be streamed).
- Floating point support (for WAV-files only).
- Decode ambisonics to speaker-feeds or binaural stereo files by using HRTF and decode to virtual speaker-array.
- Play directly to soundcard outputs or save to file.

Ixion is a media player that uses wxWidgets and GStreamer. Its is just a simple video player that can play at double or half speed. It can be useful as an example of how to write a simple app based on wxWidgets and/or GStreamer.

Ixion is a media player written in C/C++ using wxWidgets and GStreamer. It is not a bleeding edge, full-featured, eye-candy, all-in-one application; Ixion exists only because I needed a video player that could play at double or half speed. However, it can be useful if you want to see how to write a simple app based in wxWidgets and/or GStreamer. Source code is available for download under the GPL license.

You can download the source code from the downloads section. It will compile on most *nix systems ig there are the required libraries, including GNU/Linux.

Alternatively, you can get the source code using anonymous CVS access:
$ cvs -d:ext:anonymous@cvs.lug.fi.uba.ar:/cvsroot/ixion co ixion

aeon is a music player that is meant to look nice and have an interface that is as easy to use as possible.

In contrast to BMPx it is entirely library based, which means you cant add individual files to it, but you have rather to add them to the library beforehand.

You can only play files from the library (akin to RhythmBox/iTunes).

Open Cubic Player is a music player which can play a wide variety of music formats. Currently it can play so called modules (MOD, XM, S3M, IT), MIDI, MP1-3, SID tunes, and CD audio.
Open Cubic Player supports many soundcards (SB, GUS, EWS, WSS, PAS, and many more). It features many different display modes for "looking" (text and graphics) at the music.
Enhancements:
- Mac OS X CoreAudio is now supported (which requires the CoreAudio SDK).
- MP3 detection is now working again.
- Some compiler warnings and various crash bugs have been eliminated.

MPEG4IP provides an end-to-end system to explore streaming multimedia. The package includes many existing open source packages and the "glue" to integrate them together. This is a tool for streaming video and audio that is standards-oriented and free from proprietary protocols and extensions.

Provided are a live MPEG-4/H.261/MPEG-2/H.263 MP3/AAC/AMR broadcaster and file recorder, command line utilities such as an MP4 file creator and hinter, and an player that can both stream and playback from local file.

Our development is focused on the Linux platform, and has been ported to Windows, Solaris, FreeBSD, BSD/OS and Mac OS X, but it should be relatively straight-forward to use on other platforms. Many of the included packages are multi-platform already. Mp4live only works on Linux.
