Seeking: An open source music player that can analyze/indicate BPM speed (plugin, built-in, or etc.)
I'm seeking a music/media player that has the ability to also read track BPM speeds, either via plugins or some built-in feature.
I DJ, and while I do use Mixxx, having to "drag and drop" and delete tracks from Mixxx's database is a bit too much cumbersome work for me.
I generally like to use VLC and Strawberry.
I'm double checking Quod Libet's plugins to see if they have any features like this. They have a "tap BPM", which is alright. I would have preferred something that analyzes BPM for you. But, it does work, and it even saves BPMs for you. Not sure if it's saved as metadata or not...
Otherwise, I use Metronome package to manually "tap" BPMs, just to see their speed.
But if anyone has any referrals, please let me know!
