Exaile is a free software audio player for GNU/Linux operating systems, that aims to be similar to KDE's Amarok, but based on the GTK+ toolkit instead of the Qt toolkit Amarok uses.
It is written using pygtk (previously wxPython). It also uses the GStreamer multimedia platform for audio playback, and Mutagen for reading and writing track metadata.
[edit] Features
Exaile incorporates many features found in Amarok including:
- Automatic fetching of album art
- Handling of large music libraries
- Lyrics fetching
- Artist and album information via Wikipedia
- last.fm support
- Optional iPod support (requires python-gpod)
- Built in shoutcast directory browser
- Tabbed play lists
- Blacklisting of tracks from the music library
- Downloading of guitar tablature from fretplay.com, and submitting played tracks on your iPod to last.fm
