Chromebook Audio

[James1776]

What is a good app/program/work around to get decent sound out of a chromebook. I have a Lenovo 13.3 in G20 and the sound is limited to MP3 dross. I can use external speakers but the actual music files still suck.

200+ views but not a single recommendation. That is depressing. Either the issue is so old no one cares to address it or there is simply no solution and no one wants to tell me....

 

Sigh!

 

I could have asked something hard, like why does Netflix play movies in french without English subtitles in France while I can get the subtitles in the USA...

I'm not sure many people know the answer. :-) Forgive my unfamiliarity, but this is an Android OS, right? As far as I know there's a dearth of high-end music software for that. Unless an Android portable app would work. Onkyo or Neutron players? I think there's a version of Foobar for Android. That's the best I can offer.

I am using a Chromebook to listen to flac files from a portable hard drive, so i dont know why you are limited to mp3.

i can also play through a quad dmp via usb  with no problems at all.

Welcome to Computer Audiphile percy.

 

Thread resurrection it looks like.  

 

Actually VLC which is available on Chrome OS might be one of your better options.

No need for VLC on a chromebook, and i apologise for resurrecting this thread, that's the trouble with public forums, any idiot can read them.
