The main window of Clementine is basically a huge playlist. All the apps that are great and popular, are designed to interact with the user and are not intended to package content for the user. This is a concept that eludes a lot of developers today. Sudo add-apt-repository ppa:me-davidsansome/clementineĬlementine has a spartan UI (user interface) and it doesn't bother users with a lot of unneeded visual information, like lots of window panes with radio channels and the library of some online music shop.Īs everyone can see in the images below, Clementine is built around the listener and not around the music. Just add the following commands in a terminal: Ubuntu users also benefit from an official PPA so they can have the latest version installed, always. Keep in mind that you need administrator rights for that. The developers, Paweł Bara and Arnaud Bienner, also provide separate packages for a lot of other Linux operating systems, such as Debian Squezee and Fedora.
CLEMENTINE PLAYER PLUGINS INSTALL
It is available in the official software repositories so it's easy to install it with Synaptic or Ubuntu Software Center. We've installed and tested Clementine on Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot).
Therefore, they've created a new software, based on Amarok 1.4, while tring to conserve a way of listening to music that has been proven to work. The developers of Clementine were upset, like many others, with the way Amarok 2.0 looked like and (probably) with the direction of its development. The software is based on the 1.4 branch of the popular Amarok audio player.
I guess that Clementine is the result of such thinking. Maybe it's my conservatory nature, but I believe that the evolution needs to be done in small steps and not by adopting something that on the surface looks pretty, and in reality is just a nice shell for a mediocre software. I find them cumbersome and with a lot of useless features, no to mention a faulty design. Ever since I switched to Ubuntu a few years ago, I tried to get rid of the music players Canonical selects for its operating system, first Rythmbox, then Banshee. It represents what music players should be and not what they have become in the past years, with the advent of multimedia complete alternatives.
