  • I think rmpc can do this too, which is an mpd client with album art support, but it’s terminal based and requires some manual configuring. I’ve been buying CDs over the past couple of years to get rid of streaming as well, and i think i’m finally ready to cut the cord. I’ve been experimenting with different music players but ended up ditching mpd. I like to be able to switch between audio outputs easily, like alsa or pipewire, and since mpd is configured through a config file it kinda sucks for that. I also like to be able to play CDs directly, eventhough i have ripped them all, but i haven’t been able to get any terminal player to play a cd, except for mplayer, which is too minimal for my taste. At the moment i’m really liking audacious. Also tried deadbeef and strawberry, but deadbeef doesn’t have mpris support ootb, and strawberry feels a bit bloated to me. Audacious feels like a nice middleground. Audacious does support viewing lyrics but not synced from what i can tell unfortunately.
