cool & tested GNU Linux software - excellent Jajuk Music Player for large libraries - re-discover your Music collection

mocplayer has become the default player:

being written in C it is extremely resource efficient, being a terminal based GUI it is actually possible to ssh into the box that is playing the music, and change tracks “remotely”. NOICE!

BUT…. if you happen to have a large music library collection?

It seems that VLC AND MOCP are great piece of software, BUT they do not really shuffle that music.

They do not shuffle through all the songs in all sub sub sub directory with an obscure names and thus some songs won’t show up on the playlist and things get repetative fast.

Try jajuk! And rediscover your Music library!

<span style="color: #00ffff;">lsb_release -a</span>; # tesetd on
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)

and discover the gems in your song library that you totally missed out by constantly listening to your favourite playlist…

The user can tag a favorite song with a ⭐

on newer Debian just manually download the latest release.tar.gz
- https://github.com/jajuk-team/jajuk/releases
- currently that is: https://github.com/jajuk-team/jajuk/releases/download/11.0/jajuk-linux-11.0.tar.gz
unpack:
- tar fxvz jajuk-linux-11.0.tar.gz
- start it from command line like this:
  - <span style="color: #00ffff;">./jajuk</span>
- install mozo + java if not already:
- <span style="color: #00ffff;">su - root; apt install <a href="https://dwaves.de/2016/10/10/gnu-linux-debian-gnome2-mate-desktop-how-to-modify-menu-menumanager-mozo/" style="color: #00ffff;">mozo</a> java-common</span> - and add an entry to “start” menu: - - should do the job

(in older Debian, this used to work it used to be part of the package libraryhttps://packages.debian.org/stretch/jajuk but was removed for whatever reason)
