DeaDBeeF (as in 0xDEADBEEF) is an audio player for GNU/Linux, *BSD, OpenSolaris and other UNIX-like systems. There's also the Android version, which is a very different product. There are no Windows, OSX or iOS versions though, sorry for that.


Main features (the list is most likely far from complete):
* mp3, ogg vorbis, flac, ape, wv/iso.wv, wav, m4a/mp3 (aac and alac), mpc, tta, cd audio, and many more
* nsf, ay, vtx, vgm/vgz, spc and many other popular chiptune formats
* SID with HVSC song length database support for sid
* tracker modules - mod, s3m, it, xm, etc
* ID3v1, ID3v2.2, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, APEv2, Xing/Info, VorbisComments tag reading and writing, as well as reading many other tag/metadata formats in most supported formats
* automatic character set detection for non-unicode id3 tags - supports cp1251, iso8859-1, and now chinese cp936 (optional), as well as SHIFT-JIS and MS-DOS CP866 for selected formats
* unicode tags are fully supported as well (both utf8 and ucs2)
* cuesheet (.cue files) support, including charset detection/conversion
* clean fast GUI using GTK2 and GTK3, you pick what you like more!
* no GNOME or KDE dependencies
* minimization to system tray, with scrollwheel volume control, etc
* drag and drop, both in playlist, and from other apps
* control playback from command line
* global hotkeys
* multiple playlists using tabbed interface
