Everything you need

A music player that respects
your music — and you.

Your whole library

Point it at your folders, or just drop files on the window. Albums, artists and songs with tags and cover art, searchable instantly.

Jellyfin & Plex

Sign in to your own media server and play its albums like local music, with covers, seeking and gapless playback.

50,000 radio stations

The open Radio Browser directory built in, with favorites, genres and your own stream URLs.

Winamp-style equalizer

Preamp, 10 bands, presets and a live response curve. Right on the Now Playing screen.

Five visualizers

Spectrum, mirror, wave, oscilloscope and radial, floating over the artist's photo. Click to switch, double-click for full screen.

Playlists & queue

Drag to reorder, shuffle, repeat one. Import and export M3U, or save the queue as a playlist.

Fix album info

Wrong cover or messy names? Pick the right match from MusicBrainz. Your files are never touched.

Feels native

Media keys, macOS Now Playing, the Windows media overlay and Linux MPRIS. Keyboard shortcuts for everything.

Library

Your albums deserve
a better home.

Unitn player scans your music folders, reads tags and embedded art, and fetches missing covers from the free Cover Art Archive. Artist photos fade in behind Now Playing. Pick Comfy or Cozy list density, and the striped track lists stay easy to scan.

  • Albums, Artists and Songs views with instant search
  • Missing covers downloaded automatically
  • Corrections stored separately, so your files stay pristine

Your servers

Your Jellyfin and Plex,
finally with a real player.

Add your Jellyfin or Plex server in Settings and it shows up in the sidebar, with every album and its cover. Songs stream as the original files and are preloaded in the background, so seeking is instant and albums play gaplessly, just like your local music.

  • Jellyfin: sign in with your user name and password
  • Plex: your Plex account (two-factor works) or a token
  • Only an access token is stored, never your password

Sound

Tune it like
it's 1999.

A proper 10-band equalizer with preamp, presets and a live response curve, inspired by the classic Winamp look. It sits right where you listen, on the Now Playing screen, not buried in Settings.

  • Rock, Pop, Jazz, Bass boost and more presets
  • Gapless playback, also from your servers
  • Native audio engine built on symphonia and cpal

Visualizer

Watch your music move.

Five styles, each tuned for both themes. The same controls work in the Now Playing card and in full screen: left/right click or the ‹ › buttons switch styles, double-click goes full screen.
