Interfície

Amarok, per defecte, es presenta amb una interfície de tres panels.

Panell esquerra (Fonts de medis)

El Panell de fonts de medis a l'esquerra és el lloc des d'on accedeixes a la teva col·lecció local, així com altres serveis: Música Local, a la part superior, és la interfície principal per mostrar la teva col·lecció local i els dispositius extraibles com reproductors mp3 y CDs. Hi ha una secció per a tots els Serveis de Internet que tinguis activats, on podrás navegar per llistes d'emisores de radio, podcasts, escoltar-los i subscriure't a ells, interaccionar amb el teu compte de last.fm, comprar música de magatzems en línea com Magnatune, descaregar música d'artistes independets des de Jamendo i molt més. La secció Llistes de reproducció et permet crear i gestionar Llistes de reproducció dinàmiques, accedir a les teves Llistes de reproducció guardades així com el Generador automàtic de llistes de reproducció. La secció Fitxers mostra un navegador de fitxers integrat, i la secció Podcasts et permetrà accedir a les teves subscripcions de podcast.

The central pane (Context View)

This is where all the information is displayed. The central pane contains applets that dynamically change to display context information about the track that is currently playing. You can see the rating, score and play count of the Current Track applet or the last played tracks if nothing is playing, the Lyrics of the song and the Wikipedia page on the artist. More applets can be added, removed or rearranged using the settings icon on the Applet Bar at the bottom of the pane.

The right pane (Playlist View)

Amarok has the most configurable playlist of any music player in existence. It puts the power in your hands to shape the playlist any way you see fit. To start you off, there are three pre-configured playlist layouts that you can use as starting points to create the layout that fits your flow the best. You can generate playlist dynamically with various bias or use the Automatic Playlist Generator, shuffle, play at random or repeat, queue tracks and save the existing playlists for later use.

Característiques

Music Playback

Amarok can support most popular formats for music files. The actual list of formats is dependent on the codecs and audio backend in use on your system. There's also support for traditional playlists — you can create, save and load all the playlists you want.

Device Support

Amarok offers support for a great variety of Media devices such as iPods, MTP and UMS devices. The button Merge View at the top of the collection lets you merge collections. This means songs from your local collection, audio CD, mp3-player and so on will be shown in one unified collection. It is a toggle switch so you can easily revert to showing the separate sources.

Configurable Context View

The Context view, the centerpiece attraction in Amarok, can automatically fetch contextual information about the currently playing song (such as album art, lyrics or Wikipedia information) from the Internet and display them. This is one of the unique features of the Amarok series.

More Internet Services

Amarok opens the gateway to a rich multimedia experience on the Internet. Sporting interfaces to services such as Ampache music servers and mp3tunes lockers, it allows you to listen to your music from anywhere in the world. You can sample and buy music from Magnatune. Using the Jamendo service, you can listen to and download music from independent artists who can be supported by your donations. With integrated last.fm functionality, you can scrobble your tracks, use last.fm features like statistics, charts and subscribers can listen to radio streams customized to your music taste — all from Amarok. Depending on your region, you may have access to the Amazon MP3 music store. And that is just the beginning — you can add even more Internet services using the Script Manager.

Information

There are many scripts available through the scripts manager. Go to Settings -> Configure Amarok... -> Scripts -> Manage Scripts and browse the list of available scripts. You can narrow the choices by entering a phrase in the search box. When you have found a script that you want to try, just click the Install button next to it. The next time you run Amarok, you will find the script listing a number of streams in the Internet section of the Media Sources pane.

Script Manager

Scripts are add-ons that allow you to extend Amarok’s functionality in innovative ways. You use the Settings -> Configure Amarok -> Scripts option to open the Amarok Add-on Installer window.

Cover Manager

You can browse through your music collection using the nifty Cover Manager that displays the album art, download covers from various sources or let Amarok check automatically for covers in the internet.

Rating and scoring

You can show your love for the songs by rating them. Amarok supports ½⋅✩ ratings, too. In addition, Amarok can calculate a score (a sort of guessed rating) depending on metrics such as how often you listen to or skip a song.

Pop-Up Dropper

This is an innovative interface that offers contextual options (such as the ones you see in a right-click menu) that you can "drop" a song into. Grab a track and see the Pop-Up Dropper appear in the context view pane!

Configurable Playlist View

The currently loaded playlist is highly configurable and can show information about the songs in any form you like. If you are used to the Spreadsheet View found in Amarok 1.x series and other music players, you can have that, too! The Playlist View also allows you to save or export the current playlist.

Llistes de reproducció dinàmica

Amarok allows you to create weighted random playlists that adhere to various criteria exactly or approximately. For example, you can create a playlist that will be randomly populated by songs that are rated more than 3 stars and are approximately from around the year 1967!

Replay Gain Support

Amarok supports Replay Gain tag information embedded in files and automatically adjusts the overall volume of the song to a common level.
