With clementine it took me about 30 seconds lol. If you have to switch from one player to another music player, then cataloging such a huge library, especially in my case could take a REALLY LONG TIME. This is ignoring all the other random songs that I have downloaded. For just flac alone, at this moment I have over 200 cds ripped in flac which is over 100 GB.

Having the ability to crossfade into another song or even from genre A to genre B helps keep the vibe for sure and makes it very entertaining throughout - plus you feel like a DJħ) Many Equalizer presets + name and make your own - In this player you can save as many equalizer settings as possible without replacing previous ones and also can name it, unlike iTunes, where you only have "Manual".Ĩ) Adding playlists and CD's from an existing destination - In iTunes to add music, you would have to drag the music and then name the playlists and it took a long time. I have set it to 2 seconds I think, it was default, although you can change this and also play around with other options given. However, when you're in the middle of a song and choose to go to another song, it will crossfade (if u allow for it, default is yes, but you can change it) into the next very beautifully.
Going from one song to the next in a playlist naturally when a song has finished it will use gapless playback. This is so much more easier than VLC or iTunes, trust me - also both don't have support for cue files.Ħ) Crossfading options - You can customize crossfading options in this such as the time taken to go into another. Click on the album in clementine and it will automatically show all the various tracks of that album in that one big file and also play it as individual tracks in the right order automatically queued properly. files - You can have one single big ripped file of a cd and have a cue.file in the same folder (total of 2 files). NO more problems now with Clementine in this areaĤ) Loading many CD/playlist at same time and queuing them - Double click icon of CD1 and it will load all the tracks in right order to the playlist and then if u want another cd, suppose CD2, to play right after it and also gaplessly, it will allow you to do that.ĥ) Support for cue. Vlc can play flac but doesn't have gapless playback so where its suppose to be a killer transition, turns out instead to be an awkward 1 sec break totally killing the rhythm. This feature really comes into play when I have a ripped cd that has tracks that flows into each other or a mix compilation. (If the picture gets removed, let me know and I will re-upload it).ġ) Plays Mp3's as well as any other lossless audio file including flac, wav, ogg, aiff etc.Ģ) The pleasing aesthetic design of this player is really pleasing, much more than iTunes and integrates all the information and cd covers much better, while enhancing finding the right music and just being able to operate the system quite intuitively.ģ) Gapless Playback - VLC plays nicely, but doesn't have gapless playback. I'm pretty sure at least one person will find this helpful (hopefully).īelow I have listed some features and advantages of Clementine, followed with a link of a screenshot that I took for Clementine after setting up Clementine and then explaining the various details of it. So just felt like creating a thread and hopefully giving people a proper answer/solution in this area.

For Windows, there is Foobar2000 (which is really good) and you can run it on mac with parallel but still wanted to give a native option for MAC OS X. After having used it for over 6 months now, I have to say that for MAC, this has overall been the best program I have used including VLC and iTunes. I happened to find Clementine by fluke, when I had almost given up. ITunes doesn't support FLAC natively and while VLC does, it has few flaws such as lacking the ability for gapless playbacks and support for cue. I also think that Clementine is not really popular, yet, with majority of people out there so just wanted to introduce this So I decided to give a solution, hopefully it helps.

I see few threads here and there, also on other forums, where people are always asking for the best music player program that can natively play FLAC files on Mac OS X as well as being able to build a library.
