Amarok, alternative Linux à Foobar2000

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

Amarok can serve as a Foobar2000 replacement for users who want a full‑featured music library on Linux. It handles the common codecs, offers robust tagging, smart playlists and device sync, and stays light on resources. However, power users who rely heavily on Foobar’s ultra‑minimal UI, extensive DSP plugin ecosystem, or Windows‑only extensions may find Amarok’s interface and plugin selection less flexible. For most listeners seeking a stable player with good library management on Linux, Amarok is a solid choice; for those needing the extreme customisation and low‑overhead footprint of Foobar, it will feel heavier.

Ce qui change

  • Foobar’s plugin system is more extensive for DSP and visualisers
  • Amarok includes built‑in online service integration (last.fm, Magnatune) which Foobar lacks

  • Amarok provides device sync for iPod/MTP, which Foobar only supports via third‑party plugins

Ouvrir vos fichiers Foobar2000

Amarok can read standard audio files and their metadata directly, so any MP3, FLAC, AAC, etc., you have in Foobar2000 can be opened without conversion. Exported playlists in M3U or XSPF format are also readable. There is no proprietary Foobar2000 database to import, so library reconstruction will rely on rescanning your folders.

Questions fréquentes

Can I use Foobar2000 skins in Amarok?

No, Amarok uses its own Qt‑based UI and does not support Foobar2000 skin files.

Does Amarok support DSP plugins like Foobar’s equalizer?

Amarok includes a basic equalizer and supports LADSPA/FFmpeg filters, but its plugin ecosystem is not as extensive as Foobar’s dedicated DSP plugins.

Will my existing Foobar2000 library ratings transfer automatically?

Ratings stored in the audio file tags will be read by Amarok, but Foobar’s internal rating database will not import; you’ll need to re‑rate within Amarok if you used Foobar’s internal system.
