Classic Deck Player is a retro, deck-style audio player for Linux with an LCD display, a scrolling title, a live visualizer, a playlist window and a 10-band equalizer. A lightweight Linux alternative to Winamp for anyone who misses the classic compact player.

Key Features:

• LCD deck: big time counter, scrolling marquee title, real bitrate / sample rate / channel readout read from the file.
• Visualizer computed from the real decoded audio samples at the playback position: FFT spectrum bars with peak hold or oscilloscope; click the display to switch.
• Five built-in color skins (Classic Dark, Amber Terminal, Ice Blue, Neon Magenta, Paper White) plus your own skins: export the current skin as JSON, edit the colors and drop it into the skins folder.
• Playlist: add files or whole folders, sort by title / artist / filename / duration / random, shuffle, repeat, load and save M3U playlists.
• 10-band equalizer with pre-amp and presets applied by ffmpeg audio filters during playback.
• Reads MP3 (ID3), FLAC, OGG Vorbis/Opus, M4A and WAV tags. Playback uses the bundled ffmpeg engine to your PulseAudio / PipeWire server (audio-playback interface); the status line tells you if no audio server is reachable.
