Hey guys,

Ive set up an old computer of mine as a ubuntu server/router for my house. Its an old machine so I just installed the server version and none of the GUI/X windows stuff. As the server is located in our living room I thought it would be great to have a media player on it, so we can access everyones music and play it through the server.

Can anyone recomend a good CLI media player that has a good functionality and that is not too difficult to use as the rest of my housemates have no experience with linux.

Thanks in advance

You want mp3blaster. Nice customizable ncurses command-line application.

Others:

mplayer or mpg123

Thanks guys,

just got mp3blaster running this looks pretty good. I will try the other two and see which one is best.

Thanks for your help
