XP-era music and video player for the Linux desktop
Luna Media Player plays the music and video already on your computer, wrapped in the look of the desktop media players of 2004. It is for people who keep their own files and want a familiar player with no accounts and no streaming.
Features
- A library that scans your folders (
~/Musicby default), reads tags and sorts by artist, album and track, with a search box that filters as you type - A Now Playing list beside the stage, with album art and the track caption
- Eight visualisations to choose from: Ambience, Alchemy, Plenty, Bars, Ocean Mist, Scope, Battery and Fire Storm
- Video plays on the Now Playing stage
- Playback by libmpv: MP3, FLAC, WAV, OGG, Opus, AAC, M4A and WMA, plus MP4, MKV, AVI, WebM, MOV and WMV
- Play, pause, stop, previous, next, seek, volume, mute, shuffle and repeat (off, all or one), with Space, Ctrl+Left/Right and the media keys
- Opens audio and video files from the file manager's Open With, or from the terminal:
luna-media-player ~/Music/album - Your folders, volume, shuffle, repeat and visualisation are remembered between launches
Snap notes
- Luna reads media from your home folder. To play files from USB drives or other removable media, run:
sudo snap connect luna-media-player:removable-media
