Media Player which one should I use?

[blumbly]

I just have a question that I'm hoping someone can help me with.I went into the ubuntu software page as I need a problem to play my mp3's. On windows I use an awesome program called media monkey.It can do a huge amount of things,such as sort edit (names etc) rip audio cd's. Convert format of files as well as burn to cd/dvd and more.Now I know media monkey doesn't (or I can't get it to)run on ubuntu. Is there some other problem that I can get that do some of those things I said?As when I went onto ubuntu software there was quite a few programs on there.I was just hoping someone knew of something to save me installing all of them and working out which one I need to keep.
Thanks

Not sure if it will cover all your needs but you could give Clementine a look.

The main features can be found at https://www.clementine-player.org/

OK howefield I'll give that one a look over and see what I think.I'm thinking I may have to use a few programs to get all that I need but that's a start.
Thanks.

There is every chance that you will need more than the one program to cover all your requirements, just as a general tip though, there are a few sites that suggest "alternatives to" eg, alternativeto.net/ , https://www.osalt.com/ and http://www.linuxalt.com/ to name but a few. Can be decent starting places.

I doubt you'll find any single app that does most of what you listed. I use

Audacious to play music. I like it because it's simple. It doesn't want to import all my audio files into a database. It kind of strikes me as a successor to the old winamp player.

abcde with a little frontend script I wrote to rip CDs from the command line. I used to use a gui program named grip a few years back but the developers stopped supporting it.

K3b to burn discs.

I don't copy audio files to different formats often, but ffmpeg will do that.

Naturally there are half a dozen alternatives to each of these in the repository. If you'll post the specific features you'd like to have somebody will probably nominate a program that comes close to meeting them.
