What is your audio player of choice (native ARM/silicon) (lemmy.ml)

Since my favorite player (Swinsian) tends to cause stuttering issues with my MBP everytime my system load exceeds 55%, I'm looking for alternatives to play my lossless files.

Apple Music and iTunes are out of question.

Thank you kindly

I use Plexamp. This requires a Plex server though.

Thanks, sadly I don't have this and I stream directly from my own NAS via SMB / NFS / AFP

I use Colibri when I prefer to drag a folder to play.

I used to use Swinsian, and plan to go back to it. Have you tried the beta?

I was using Music, but I’m finding it’s randomly deleting my local files. Nice feature.

Doppler looks pretty, but it’s not very useful for me. Not good for metadata management and I don’t have a lot of space on my iPhone so the functionality of it for now…

Plexamp I like the ability to stream my library (rather than Apple Music versions of my library), but on MacOS the UI is counterintuitive and again metadata management isn’t there so Swinsian seems the best.

IINA does play albums with a neat playlist overview and cover image.
