Free vlc media player 0.8.1 software for linux

Gecko Media Player is a browser plugin that uses GNOME MPlayer to play media in a browser.

The project should work with all browsers on Unix-ish systems(Linux, BSD, Solaris) and use the NS4 API (Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, etc.).

Gecko Media Player is in heavy development, but I wanted to get some code drops out there so that people can start using and testing it.

Whaaw! Media Player is an audio/video player using gstreamer (like totem but without GNOME dependencies).

Whaaw! Media Player will play any audio/video files which gstreamer can play. It supports fullscreen mode, seeking, changing video colour settings and more. It is inteded to be a basic media player similar to totem.

AT Media Page provides a simple and easy to use Plone Page which can contain ATImages.

MplayerBuddy is a media bookmarking application designed to keep track of the user’s place when watching videos. The application uses mplayer as its back-end media player, is written in C# using the gtksharp toolkit, is designed to run with mono on Linux and is excellent for people with very short attention spans who constantly start and stop several videos like myself.

PyMediaServer is a barebones UPnP-based Media Server for use with a Netgear MP101 Digital Music Player.
PyMediaServer currently:
- supports the Netgear MP101 and has not been tested with any other UPnP client devices
- Supports browsing MP3s (only MP3s at this point) via the UPnP ContentDirectory service, but only provides organization by directories (that is, it does not support an Artist category, Genre category, etc.)
- Supports ordering MP3s found in a given folder via track number if those track numbers are available via ID3v2
- Supports playing MP3s via RTSP and RTP/UDP to the MP101
Development is currently in progress to add support for organization by Artist, Genre, and Alblum. Additional features Id like to include are:
- Playlist support
- Internet Radio support
- PyGTK Interface
- Improved Installer
- WMA support
- Additional Media Player support
Installing and Running
The installation process at the moment is straightforward, though there are some noted issues with it.
In a nutshell I recommend downloading the source to /usr/src or /usr/local/src and then running install.sh in the pymediaserver directory. This merely creates a link from /usr/bin/pymediaserver to the MediaServer.py file. You will have to edit install.sh if you want the link created in a different bin directory.
Running should be straightforward:
pymediaserver /path/to/mp3s/ to load a new set of content
Note that /path/to/mp3s/ is an absolute path and should be readable by the user from which pymediaserver is launched (robustness isnt supported yet).
If no arguments are presented to pymediaserver it will try to load a stored dictionary in $HOME/.pymediaserver/. If one doesnt exist it will fail (probably with a nasty traceback).
Enhancements:
- The non-graphical version no longer requires GTK+ or X in any fashion, allowing it to be started as a daemon.
- The Media Directory is now read directly from the Amarok database if available using a SQLite interface.
- Error handling when encountering malformed ID3 tags was improved along with the handling of character encoding of MP3 titles.

Exaile project is a media player aiming to be similar to KDEs AmaroK, but for GTK+. It incorporates many of the features from AmaroK (and other media players) like automatic fetching of album art, handling of large libraries, lyrics fetching, artist/album information via the wikipedia, last.fm support, and optional iPod support (assuming you have python-gpod installed).

In addition, it includes a built in shoutcast directory browser, tabbed playlists (so you can have more than one playlist open at a time), blacklisting of tracks (so they dont get scanned into your library), downloading of guitar tablature from fretplay.com, and submitting played tracks on your iPod to last.fm.

KXplayer is a very simple media player, based on xine. Its my hobby-project - just a way to get a better knowledge of KDEs internals.

Besides I wanted to learn programming C++ and since I believe the best way to learn programing is to write a program, I just made my mind to write a multimedia player.

Since it is a player, this word had to be in present in the title. The K and X appered there because of KDE (interface) and XINE (backend).

I took the decision to write a player because I needed one. I needed a good media player for KDE (something like XMMS with KDE inderface), which would be working as reliably as possible.

At present my PC is a 750MHz Duron with 128MB RAM and its almost imposible to work in OpenOffice.org and listen to MP3/OGG at the same time. Running XMMS and OpenOffice 1.x together on my Mandrake results in sound fragmentation.

For some time Ive been using boombox (you can find it in kde-apps). It is based on xine and I found it working better than xmms - almost no fragmentation. Unfortunately boomboxs interface is a bit strange (IMHO) and its not saving the equalizer settings (very annoying).
