clementine 0.3

Clementine is a music player written in Qt4 which looks a lot like Amarok 1.4. It doesn't come with too many features for now but Amarok 1.4 nostalgics will definitely like it.


Because is written in Qt, Clementine works on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X and features:
  • Search and play your local music library
  • Listen to internet radio from Last.fm and SomaFM
  • Load M3U and XSPF playlists
  • Edit tags on MP3 and OGG files, organise your music
  • Download missing album cover art from Last.fm
  • Native desktop notifications on Linux (libnotify) and Mac OS X (Growl)


Clementine 0.3 was released just a few hours ago and brings a few big changes: it now uses Gstreamer to play music, a new equalizer, cross-fading, gapeless playback, you can now control Clementine using the command line, undo and redo in the playlist and a lot more.

A complete list of changes in version 0.3 can be found HERE.


Clementine may not have all the features in the world, but for such an early version it looks great!


Download Clementine (.deb, .rpm, .exe and .dmg files available)
