Exaile como alternativa Linux a Foobar2000
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
Exaile can replace Foobar2000 for users who need a lightweight, customizable Linux audio player with decent library management and plugin support. It handles common formats, offers gapless playback, smart playlists, and low resource usage. However, it lacks some advanced DSP plugins and the same level of UI tweaking that Foobar2000 offers. It is best suited for Linux users who want a straightforward, open‑source solution with good internet radio and podcast support.

Abrir tus archivos de Foobar2000
Foobar2000 uses its own .foobar2000 library files and playlist formats (.pls, .xspf). Exaile can open standard playlist formats like .m3u, .m3u8, .pls, and .xspf, so most playlists will import without issue. Library metadata is stored in a SQLite database; there is no direct import of Foobar2000’s proprietary database, but you can re‑import tracks and tags manually or via a script.
Pasar de Foobar2000 a Exaile, paso a paso
- Export your Foobar2000 playlists to .m3u or .xspf format.
- Copy your music library folder to a location accessible by Exaile (e.g., ~/Music).
- Launch Exaile and use the Library > Add Folder feature to index the music directory.
- Import the exported playlists via File > Import Playlist.
- Install any desired Exaile plugins (e.g., ReplayGain, Last.fm) from the Plugin Manager.
