Rhythmbox como alternativa Linux ao Foobar2000

Abrindo seus arquivos do Foobar2000

Rhythmbox can open any standard audio file that Foobar2000 plays (MP3, FLAC, AAC, etc.). It does not understand Foobar2000‑specific playlist files (.fpl) or its custom metadata extensions, so you’ll need to export playlists to a common format like M3U from Foobar2000 before importing them into Rhythmbox. Exporting the music library itself is just a matter of copying the files, which both programs read from the same locations.

Trocando o Foobar2000 pelo Rhythmbox, passo a passo

1. Export your Foobar2000 playlists to M3U or XSPF format
2. Copy your music folder to the Linux machine or mount the same drive
3. Install Rhythmbox via your distro’s package manager (e.g., sudo apt install rhythmbox)
4. Open Rhythmbox and point it to the folder containing your music so it can scan and build the library
5. Import the exported M3U playlists via Rhythmbox’s ‘Import Playlist’ option
6. Configure any optional plugins you need, such as Last.fm scrobbling
