Pogo is billed as probably the simplest and fastest audio player for Linux. Pogo plays your music. Nothing else.
Its elementary-inspired design uses the screen-space very efficiently. Pogo is especially well-suited for people who organize their music by albums on the hard drive. The main interface components are a directory tree and a playlist that groups albums in an innovative way.
Pogo is a fork of Decibel Audio Player and supports most common audio formats. It uses GTK+ and gstreamer.
Features include:
- Fast search on the hard drive and in the playlist.
- Smart album grouping.
- Cover display.
- Desktop notifications.
- No music library.
- Control Pogo from the command line.
- Ubuntu notification support.
- Search box.
- Equalizer.
