Share a screenshot of your audio players (including mobile audio players)
Do you use audio players? Any special customization/theme?
This is foobar2000 v2.0. I know you can do a lot of customization but this is enough for me. I also use foo_title which adds a customizable mini window:
(Not my screenshot but I use the same theme for my mini window)
I use Musicbee and have no idea what I'll do if I ever switch OS.
Many would probably find it bloated or ugly, but I have been using it for years and love all the features. Off the top of my head: split tags (multiple artists), powerful auto playlists, dedicated audiobooks and inbox sections, automatic file organisation, support for all tag fields plus many custom ones, playcounts and played dates, custom keybinds, file re-encoder, audio gain calculation and support, scrobbling... the point is, I actually use all this quite frequently and I'm kinda stuck with it now lol.
There are definitely things I wish it did better, and I know that a lot of this could be accomplished with multiple programs. But having it all in one package is massively helpful for speed/efficiency. I tried some Linux music players recently and I struggle to see how I'd move my workflow across; There would definitely be compromises.
@IronKrill Just from the screenshot it looks wonderfully bloated tbh. There's so much interesting information in it that I would love to see my library through it. The player I'm using (Audacious) also had a lyrics plugin, but it's currently broken.

The best match on Android I've found for the way I use my library is GoneMad, but as much as there are things I like about it there are also many I don't, such as lack of easy ratings, no way to edit song files in a compatible way with MusicBee, lack of display options such as song counts on the artist lists, and more. I wish there was a MusicBee mobile.
I used Musicolet before this which had the best queue system I've seen for a music player, mobile or not, but sadly there was no easy way to import and sync my .m3u playlists from the PC which was an absolute deal breaker. Musicolet required everything to be internal to itself.
