Might have tools for 'sharing' across platforms. Cost: $60 to buy, no annual/monthly fee.It has tools for video etc, which I have not looked at - and really dont care.

Abilty to handle a stupidly large collection.

A 'workflow' thats just to my needs: pick a genre - based on my mood, then artist.

Might be a 10/10 - need more time to play with it

Functionality 9/10 - very similar to MediaMonkey.

But I could set it for 10 sec, which should handle the worst. Haven't had enough listening time to see how well it handles network hickups.

Pre-buffering adjustments - excellent.

But I appreciate not having to jump through hoops to run this on my Mac OS X native release - albeit seems a bit old.so maybe I'm an excessively harsh critic. Not flashy, more 2005 plain vanilla (I run an UI/UX design group. So I still have not yet found a player which meets my needs.Ĭlick to expand.That is an excellent recommendation! thanks, Audirvana - decent, expensive, no caching options - same problems as Swinian.their app maps my network and all the connected devices - WAY too intrusive for me.so most of their business model does not appeal to me.I have no interest in uploading my files.Typically I pick a genre, then the artist

a bit limited on how to select what I want to listen to.

MediaMonkey - there are instructure for how to run it on Wine, but I've never been able to get it running.

There was litterly nothing I liked about it Ideally it allows me adjust the amount of caching. But even a small hickup distrupts the music. Its great software, for playback and even auto organized the songs into that above structure. When I ripped my collection, I was using MonkeyMedia, on Windohs.

I ripped my entire collect to FLAC and put it on the server, ~300 Gb.

Networked to my other Macs around the house, mostly wired.

My server is a 2012 Mac Pro, with RAID 1 drives that holds all my media.

Also, editing track info is awkward compared to iTunes.you have to select a track, mouse to the edit window and edit your info, mouse back to track listing and select the next track, then mouse back to the edit window - there should be a 'next' button like in iTunes.ĭespite these small issues (and a few others), for me Swinsian is a step up from iTunes and/or the Music App and was well worth the $25.I am looking for a media player, for my Mac(s) Even if it did, the lyrics window is way too small and can't be resized. And while Swinsian did import all my playlists, album art and star ratings, it didn't import my lyrics. I get the Column Browser back which the Music App took away, I no longer have to convert FLAC files to an iTunes readable format (a big time saver for me), and it's much zippier.iTunes (and the Music App) always had a 2 or 3 second lag when switching songs which never bothered me, but I think after using Swinsian that lag would bug me if I had to switch back to the Music App. I purchased Swinsian a week ago and I'm really liking it.

I paid full price for this software and am disappointed that such a simple yet important feature is still nowhere to be seen. Among the many different applications I have running on a regular basis, this has been only one that has yet to give my eyes a rest even among a bunch of other third-party developers. More importantly, if the developers are reading this, please PLEASE implement a dark mode soon. A simple 'lock' button next to the size slider would completely fix the issue.

Aside from a couple issues I've had, Swinsian makes other Mac OS music players look like a joke.Ĭhanging the grid's icon size is an exception to the lag-free experience and is especially frustrating because it's extremely easy to mess everything up with an accidental zoom gesture and go through the laggy, frustrating process of getting it to the right size again and again. The overall lack of fluff while still having a fantastic interface is a godsend. The customizability has allowed me to arrange the interface exactly to my liking. I'm at over 250gb of lossy audio (about 30k files) myself and experience little to no lag when navigating the browsers and art grid. Definitely the best music player around for big libraries.
