Development has ceased a long time ago, but now I decided to archive this project. I would like thank everyone involved with the project.
Cross-platform and open-source Music Player designed to be simple and lightweight. If you want a player full of features, most of them you don't use, exaggerated eye-candy and a memory hog, take a look around , there are lots. However if you want a different player that doesn't distract you or wastes your time, KISS Player can be a great alternative.
As of now, it's alpha, usable, but lacks some minor features and needs more polishing. Suggestions and contributions are welcome.
Note: The name has nothing to do with the metal band or the act of kissing. It's an acronym for "Keep it simple, stupid" principle.
- Windows - download the lastest release and extract.
- Arch Linux - an AUR package is available:
yay -S kissplayer
- First you should have your songs on one or more directories.
- Open KISS Player, click the menu button(with 3 lines) and select the option Settings.
- Add your directory(ies) and close the settings window.
- On main window menu select the option Synchronize Library.
- Now you can play your songs which are available on the left panel.
- You can also drag and drop files on main window.
Check the project's wiki for instructions
If you'd like to contribute and see KISS Player in your native language, please head over Transifex.
On Windows, there is an option for this under settings.
On Linux, check the current locale with the command: locale
Check Arch's wiki for instructions on how to manage locales.
For CJK languages under Linux, due FLTK limitations, it is necessary to pass as argument the name of a font that supports CJK characters, i.e. ./kissplayer -f Code2000
