A small and simple sound and music player that is well integrated with GNOME.
Amberol aspires to be as small, unintrusive, and simple as possible. It does not manage your music collection; it does not let you manage playlists, smart or otherwise; it does not let you edit the metadata for your songs; it does not show you lyrics for your songs, or the Wikipedia page for your bands.
Amberol plays music, and nothing else.
The recommended way of installing Amberol is through Flatpak. If you don't have Flatpak installed, you can get it from the Flatpak website.
You can install stable builds of Amberol from Flathub by using this command:
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install flathub io.bassi.Amberol
If you have questions about Amberol, you can join the #amberol:gnome.org
channel on Matrix, or use the GNOME Discourse instance.
Please, see the contribution guide if you wish to report and issue, fix a bug, or implement a new feature.
Run Amberol from your terminal using:
RUST_BACKTRACE=1 RUST_LOG=amberol=debug flatpak run io.bassi.Amberol
to obtain a full debug log.
Amberol is translated on the GNOME translation platform.
You should contact the coordinator of the localization team for your language if you have questions.
For more information, please see the GNOME Translation Project wiki.
Amberol follows the GNOME project Code of Conduct. All communications in project spaces, such as the issue tracker or Discourse are expected to follow it.
The name comes from the the Blue Amberol Records, a type of cylinder records made of (blue) nitrocellulose, capable of playback durations of around four minutes, just about the length of the average song since 1990.
