SnackAmp is a multi-platform music player with normal music player abilities, multi-user support, integrated web server, and a powerful AutoPlaylist feature. Currently mp3, wav, ogg vorbis, and many other sound files are supported. SnackAmp also plays mp3 and ogg streams and can act as a Icecast/Shoutcast compatible server for other stream clients. Both auto-leveling (normalization) and gapless playback are supported. Tcl/Tk scripts and stand-alone executables (for Windows and Linux) are available from sourceforge.
The motivation behind SnackAmp was to overcome the deficiency in other media players to manage tens of thousands of mp3/ogg files in a powerful and easy to use manner. Although a database is used to track files by their metadata, SnackAmp allows you to organize your files in a familiar directory structure allowing you maximum freedom without having to change each tag to display the files in a certain way.
