CDPlayer ~ CD Player App

Posted by tom2tec on

CDPlayer is a Java desktop app that recreates the tactile feel of a physical CD player for local audio playback. Load a track, press play, and enjoy a simple, distraction-free music experience without relying on a browser or web app — no accounts, no streaming, no internet required to play a song. Built with plain Java and native Swing/AWT — no external UI framework, single self-contained app

Plays local audio files through a custom low-latency streaming engine, with FFmpeg handling the formats Java can’t decode natively

Full queue management: drag-and-drop, drag-to-reorder, shuffle, repeat, crossfade, volume, mono downmix, and per-track removal — queue is saved automatically and restored next launch

Ten built-in themes — nine animated ones plus AUTO, which derives its whole palette from the current track’s own album art

A sleep timer that pauses playback after a set time, with a live countdown in the header

A 10-band graphic equalizer with built-in and savable custom presets, and a beat-synced visualizer

True fullscreen, a distraction-free fullscreen Visualizer Mode, and a Mini Mode that shrinks the whole app down to a small always-on-top widget

A dedicated Settings dialog for theme, crossfade, mono, and an ambient blurred-cover-art background wash

Automatic metadata and album art, with an online lookup fallback when a file has none

Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux. ffmpeg required.

Integral ~ Java MicroEdition Player

Posted by on

Integral is music player for cellphones and other mobile devices with Java MicroEdition platform (J2ME). This player has outstanding ability to keep played statuses for each track in the playlist. It has three possible statuses for each track: new, played or partially played.

Key features of the player:

  • User can define directory and supported file extensions for music files
  • Player can keep individual statuses for each track in list, including partial played position
  • English and Russian interface, player supports Russian MP3 tags
  • User interface is automatically layouted for different screen sizes
  • Player can be sent to background execution, if this feature’s supported by device
  • Lock screen featuring large digital clock. Automatic screen lock can be turn on, based on inactivity timer.
  • This project is open source (distibuted under GNU GPL)

Integral player doesn’t decode sound streams itself by design. Instead, Integral can be considered as a shell to internal playback functions of the mobile device. That’s why the player supports only those formats of music files which are supported by the actual device.

Axone.jar ~ mp3 Examination

Posted by tom2tec on

Axone.jar is a utility allowing you to view all the information available in an MP3 file. This is not to be misunderstood: all the possible information. In the tag version 2 (ID3V2), the information is subdivided into frames and there are many more frames declared than frames actually displayed by MP3 players. Well Axone.jar knows how to display them all, without exceptions and whatever the version!

  • Very classic frames such as title, album, artist, year, genre, track and comment.
  • Other frames displayed by only some MP3 players.
    • the image(s).
    • the composer.
    • the text of the song.
    • volume control (itunes)
  • The frames that are hidden from you (not necessarily with bad intentions).
    • private frames (MusicMatch).
    • encapsulated objects (RealJukebox).
    • abusive comments (iTunes, Mediaplayer, MusicMatch, SoundJam).
    • identification of coding software (LAME, iTunes)
    • the identification of the original CD (LAME)
    • internet links (MusicMatch)
  • Undeclared frames, not understood and therefore clearly hidden from all MP3 players.
  • The other frames usually not used.

Other data

The Lyrics and TAG+ tags, which are completely obsolete, may remain forgotten in certain files. If they are present, Axone.jar displays them.

When the software reads an MP3 file to display the current tag, it does a summary check of the audio data. It gives you the classic information on bitrate, sampling frequency, duration, etc.; but also if it finds excess or erroneous data. Excess data can be a sign of corrupted audio data, or of data intentionally hidden if the file was purchased on a merchant site (or if you did P2P). At this level, it is important to understand that the audio decoder is robust in the sense that data that is incomprehensible to it is simply skipped. It is therefore very easy to hide data between audio data, without risking disturbing MP3 players.

Wave Lens ~ Scan Audio To Find Artifacts & Defects

Posted by tom2tec on

This application can be used to find artifacts in audio files generated by signal processors. It analyses the signal variance across the audio duration, then generates a graph of the results.

The following types of audio can analysed:
* Music
* Sine Tones
* Noise (White, Pink, etc)

If the audio recording is split across multiple files, they can be loaded into this application collectively and will be treated as a single stream. Multiple batches can also be loaded, in order to process multiple recordings in one continuous operation. The scanners can only process audio files up to 2.5GB, but the file splitter function can be used to break up large files into smaller ones.

PS3 Media Server ~ Cross-platform Media Server

Posted by tom2tec on

PS3 Media Server is a DLNA-compliant UPnP Media Server. Originally written to support the Sony PlayStation3, PS3 Media Server has been expanded to support a range of other media renderers, including smartphones, TVs, music players and more. Because it is written in Java, PS3 Media Server supports all major operating systems, with versions for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

The program streams or transcodes many different media formats with little or no configuration. It is powered by MEncoder, FFmpeg, tsMuxeR and AviSynth, which combine to offer support for a wide range of media formats.
