Sorry to bump in to this, but why not use players like vlc, Audacious or 
Kodi?

To me Audacious still kicking and works on Debian 9.

Because they are ugly and not of same quality compared to mplayer

Please define quality, sound quality?
Where can I read more about it?
Can you equalize the sound on the fly?
Have you heard about mpv?

I don't want to argue. Everybody is free to use what she/he find suitable.
I don't care what mpv is as I already have what I need.

I really want to know, not to argue. Something I should consider with 
mplayer?
I design audio gear myself.

And still looking for a decent HQ audio option for linux, did I miss 
something on mplayer?

Thanks.

I think it depends on what you want to do with it. mplayer can be embedded,
but it is just the engine. in the background there are (almost) the same
plugins you would see in vlc.

Look at their homepage or in the code directly.

Too bad I can't code, otherwise I would. Tried to learn a few years ago, 
all I see is "do this, do that, hello world" but I miss some kind of a 
logic behind it. Is just like OS's, if you get the logic behind it you 
can use any, it doesn't matter the brand.

I'm looking for Improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), True 24-bit @ 
192kHz audio playback, no humans hear that, still I have hardware to do 
some test with, low latency, players that doesn't click or pops, you 
know, the good stuff.

Thanks.

So you must know that the source should be coded this way otherwise it makes
no sense. In todays world of mp3 crippled audio, I am not sure you find
high quality coded stuff that easy.

You better grab a some vinil from your grandma ;-)

Yes, I use source from HDtracks, ProStudio Masters, 7studio, Bowers & 
Wilkins Society of Sound, Primephonic, DSD, along Hi-Res 24-bit/192kHz 
capable equipment.

I'm not a big fan of downloading mp3, I rather like to convert my own 
stuff to hear it in FLAC or AAC. Music in general this days are crap, 
the ones that play in the main media in special, not to say the quality, 
most of then are over saturated, over compressed (loudness war).

Checking some with Audacity you can see a red block from start to finish 
of the song.

Not big fan of vinyl and tube/valve amps. ;-)

Within dselect,
I made a little test activating packets for installation:

a) vlc
b) mplayer + smplayer

and compared the amount of packets to be installed:

mplayer turned out to be the slimmer choice,
and does it's job.

I don't have space limitations around here, as long as it works. ;)
Maybe I should move to another Linux distribution specific for my needs.
http://www.ap-linux.com

I don't know if is because I'm aging and now I've other priorities, I 
don't fell like messing with Linux too much. Before I used to compile my 
kernel specific to my machine, with specific cflags and all.

Now I just want the damn thing to work ;)

For this reason I use Trinity Desktop ;-) - it just works - the old fashion
