After a year of development, published release of the music player Qmmp 2.3. The player includes two interfaces: “simple”, using standard elements, and “classic”, which copies the Xmms/Winamp/Audacious interface. OSS4 (FreeBSD), ALSA (Linux), Pulse Audio, JACK, QtMultimedia, Icecast, WaveOut (Win32), DirectSound (Win32) and WASAPI (Win32) can be used for audio output. The code is written in C++ using the Qt library and distributed under the GPLv2 license. Ready-made packages generated for Ubuntu. In parallel, released a set of additional modules Qmmp Plugin Pack 2.3, which added experimental support mpv.
