extracampine Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Has anyone tried this software called Album Player (http://www.albumplayer.com) ? Looks pretty interesting, with native ASIO support and a strong focus on album art. I'm downloading it for testing just now.

Paul R Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 At least from the screenshots. I do not think it accepts either AIFF or ALAC music files, which is what 99+ percent of my library is in, but let me know if it does please. -Paul Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat DAC.

fradi Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 The home page says: AlbumPlayer offers native ASIO support for audiophile listeners and reads WMA, MP3, OGG, FLAC, WAV, APE, WavPack, MusePack and the OptimFROG format. Link to comment
johniboy Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 i tried the demo version yesterday. it has a very nice gui, the usability is great and i liked the possibility to use "touch screen mode". BUT i have a large database that mediamonkey can load without problems. album player throws a "null" exception and quits when trying to include my library. i found that some of my music files are corrupt. good. but why does album player not just skip these files like MM? also, some tags (eg the release data of the album) in my collection have a different format than expected by album player. again, the import is aborted. i do not see how i can ever import my library. too bad. otherwise looks great...

extracampine Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 I also ran into some database configuration problems with Album Player. Add to that a few things I didn't like about the interface, and I decided to ditch it. Has potential, though I'll stick with Mediamonkey for now.
