General feedback
I just nominated Jajuk for the SourceForge.net 2008 Community Choice Best Product for Multimedia, but I started worrying that that category may be more in the way of video players--and I rarely watch anything. I'm not even sure if Jajuk does video and if Jajuk doesn't do video whether Jajuk stands a chance in that category. Should I nominate in another category? Sorry if my amish tendencies makes me unclear about how Jajuk fits into official categories. Still, I think you deserve an award.
Team: thanks to nominate Jajuk, Multimedia is the right category (and BTW, jajuk reads video even it's not is primary goal)
This is the best player I ever used!!! Thx guys, you are masters. If I can make some donation I wont hesitate. -joskamail@***.fm
Thank you for writing an excellent player. it basically works just as nicely as amarok, but does not crash nearly as much. not to mention it runs on many more platforms --metaperl
Well, I came across Jajuk - Just Another JUKebox from Lifehacker. This is a really cool player. The main multimedia player on my computer has been Winamp, for all these years. But looking at the features that Jajuk has to offer, I think its time to finally change!!. This seems like the software that could make a change much like Firefox or Wikipedia did! - Naveen Roy from http://www.naveenroy.com/search?q=jajuk
Magnificent player. Best piece of software I've ever downloaded. Great fun! - Ben
Jajuk is - as far my very long search tells me - the best player and catalog for mp3 so far! One of very few, that may play a complete folder, such as Amarok. But Jajuk has such a very nice additional feature: The Album Library Popup View! --Monika
A tremendous application, from what I've seen this afternoon having installed and had a play around. Cheers guys/gals whoever you are, for a great piece of work --Steaker--
I started to look at Jajuk lately and really like it's way of providing functionality around playing files and organizing big collections of audio files. I still discover new features every day! -Dominik Stadler
Thank you so much for all your hard work! Exceptional functionality, great appearance. The best I've seen! -Anna
I had a serious addiction of trying out media players about year. I recovered, but I tried Jajuk today. It was what I was always looking for. I've called up five friends to tell them how excellent it is. Admittedly, there were some rough edges, but I think they can be worked out. Anyhow, great work!!!
Hello Looks good! Very useful, good stuff. Good resources here. Thanks much! Bye
Jajuk, is really a great player, Many many thanks to Jajuk team.I like it because, it works on my computer better then any other music player including itune and windows media player. This player also inspire me to learn java. Which i have started learning already. dhruva023
Greetings from Germany. Great Software. The Best I could find. No unuseful gimmicks, easy to use and find songs. This is the way, software should be.
Keep up the good work with Jajuk. I've been using it for a few months and I really like it for its functionality and because it's free software and being a Java program I can use it on Windows and Linux. Rock on! -Tyler Magistrelli
Very good!!! Great player and it looks really well. Many Many thanks to Jajuk team. Software without bugs! Not many players are as well as this one, and its free!!! Great work! For me its very useful that the player also plays *wma files and that the player includes a playlist editor which is not arranging itself. So you can use it very well on parties. Greetings from Germany and sorry for my bad English
From my point of view this is the best player over Linux Systems. --Gould
Which feature I would like to be implemented the most ?
I love the program. There is one feature I can't work out. I want to save generated playlists from the 'ambience' feature. Is their any way of doing that? I see a 'save playlist' button, but when I click on it nothing seems to happen. Keep up the good work! Paul B
Hey, great program, I find it very usable and versatile with all its features, but as always there's always room for improvement :). I personally would like to know more about the lyrics functionality and was wondering if it could be expanded upon - principally, I would love it if I could input my own lyrics to be saved/cached and displayed when they can't be found using the search method. And regarding the search method itself, I would greatly appreciate more control and functionality over it, such as selection of lyric servers being searched on or scripts searching through a defined list of servers a la Amarok. Other than that though, Jajuk is (in a word) excellent.
I would like support for copying/synchronizing a file or selection of file directly to a portable/removable device (such as an MP3 player). Mediamonkey supports this, but I would like this functionality on a Linux platform as well.

I'd really like to have the album display screen allow you to view images related to the album, for example a PDF of the liner notes (I would create the PDF file myself). For example you double-click the album and get a PDF file opening in a different window, and you can browse through This seems to me like a challenging project. I tried creating a property, "Liner Notes" on each of the albums, thinking thi woul. Thing is I don't know how to access this user-defined property.
that's all Roy P.
Audio-CD-Support
Using VLC-Player as alternative player.
Support for Audioscrobbler (last.fm)
Team: available from Jajuk 1.4
i would like to have a disc-cache feature for mp3-discs/network drives. so if i want to hear a file from cd/dvd, i put in the disc in the cdrom-drive, the track is copied to hard disc, enqueued in the playlist and then played. while it is played, i can remove the cd/dvd and then enqueue the next song ... what do you think? (Team: follow http://trac.jajuk.info/ticket/632)
Using the "cover" picture inside the MP3 tag, if available. Why ? The one inside mp3 has a one-to-one relation and if you reorganize your mp3 files, it follows the mp3. Another advantage of using the "cover" inside mp3 is that you can have several covers for an album. Let me explain, I have "albums" which consist of live performances of different artists/groups on the same night. (Then I add a picture of the performing artist in their own mp3 recordings.)
I'd really like to be able to play protected wma's with Jajuk...
Displaying the current title played on web radio
I am currently using Jajuk on a removable drive. I have a batch file that will create .jajuk profile in my user profile folder and will then create a junction to my external drives profile folder. This allows Jajuk to see the profile folder on my external drive. But my issue now is getting Jajuk to use variables so I can specify my devices location to %USERPROFIlE%\My Documents\My Music\Volume01, so I can link that folder to my external music folder. So this way no matter what drive letter is asigned to the drive it will still see the profile and music folder. Which right now is true for profile but not music. Another though would be for Jajuk to read a config file that tells it where the profile folder will be and device locations relative to jajuk location. Bottom line make a portable version of Jajuk.Team: please continue discussion at https://trac.jajuk.info/ticket/857

Right now to solve my problem. My batch file also creates a folder "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Music\Volume01\". Then the batch file creates a junction between "Volume01" and "portable drive\music". So all I do is have Jajuk point to All Users\My Music\Volume01. Problem solved. It is a bit more complicated for non techies though. If anyone wants a copy of my batch file for them selves let me know r3d2dawn att gmail dot com
--R3d2dawn 19:39, 6 January 2008 (CET)
I do not know about anyone else, but some other features I would love to see down the road eventually with Jajuk is the possible following features:
- Encoding, such has BonkEnc either embedded or as a plugin/addon.
- Maybe Exact Audio Copy either embedded or as a plugin/addon
Or does anyone feel this would be too much for this application and these features be left to heir own separate entity.
--R3d2dawn 19:57, 6 January 2008 (CET)
I would love it if jajuk could auto arange files into folders eg \ to \artist\album\ as can wmp, aswell as source tag data online to help better manage music collections, it seems it has album art capabilities which would be great to use in the same organisation, cathelest@cathelst.com 01:10, 26 January 2008 (AEST) Team: It already exist, please check Files organizer
Also another cool feature would be a mode where you can have a waterd down gui, a mode party jukebox mode where it will allow users to play songs ect, but lock jujuk from closing, possible hide the start menu, awesom for partys where you can set up a pc to run jujuk to keep the party pumping and give the users a choice. cathelest@cathelst.com 01:10, 26 January 2008 (AEST)
I would love to see more with the album cover mode..Similar to iTunes with the scroll, but what would be even cooler is something along the lines of the picLens interactive 3D Wall. You can have it in standard mode (how Jajuk is now) or compact mode. In compact mode you would have your player looking device depending on skin with the play, pause, ect, but in the middle (or anywhere)is the view screen that displays album cover. When you click it it pops out a compact version of the interactive 3D wall (kind of the size maybe of how iTunes album viewer is. Then you can scroll through the albums and clik one to zoom into it to view songs title etc..You could possible even have mini mode which minimize to the taskbark like some players can,and their be a spot to clik and a pop up occurs then --R3d2dawn 00:24, 20 Feburary 2008 (CET)
An equalizer or something like that
There are two things I would like to see: 1) Support for manual rating (5 stars) with quick access (like iTunes), additionally or optionally replacing current rating system 2) User defined properties are extremely useful for tagging, but filtering is difficult (how do I filter for a checkbox?) and the Auto DJs cannot work with these properties, if I am not mistaken. --Elisoj 23:01, 21 April 2008
Which current feature do I like the most ?
I like very much the possibility to customize the GUI. Also I like the full text search.
I like the ability to download the covers of albums that I don't have with just one click, I don't even have to search for them.
I'd love to see an option to change/disable individual hotkeys! -LlamaNerds
Jajuk is everything I wanted in a AudioPlayer. As far as I am concerned Jajuk tops them all. Its better then Window Media Player, iTunes, and any other out their. Although Portability would be nice.
Personally, All features are my favorite. The Information button is a great feature. At the moment not much else needs to be done for just the Audio Features as far as Playbackgoes.
--R3d2dawn 19:45, 6 January 2008 (CET)
One of the best features is that it can handle the widest choice of file formats.
What do I dislike in Jajuk ?
I don't like the icon set: it's too much kde-oriented and doesn't fit with a gnome desktop. (keltik, italy). Team: note that we use the Tango icon set from 1.4.
I don't like that there cannot be played *.wma-files, which are licensed! Is there any upgrade, which can fit this problem?
Because of the big icons in the taskbars (left, bottom) it is nearly impossible to run Jajuk 1.4 on an Laptop with a resolution of 1024x768. I feel much more comfortable with the old GUI. Team: from jajuk 1.5, perspective bar icons size can be set from 16 to 64 pixels
My only complaint is that I can't figure out a way to weed out (delete) duplicate songs while browsing the library. Team: done in 1.5
The program has a serious problem with a lack of intuitive interface. It makes a terrible player because it is so difficult to figure out. There is no track information display that is readily apparent, nor does it show the current song info when playing an Internet stream. There is no play button. Where does one enter the URL? Where are the skins?
I can't seem to get it to show the japanese tags porperly.
Other ?
I would totally dig a native version for the Mac! -Nick
Support for XSPF playlist format please.
Also, it would be useful to have a stripped-down applet version that could be embedded in a web page.
Last.fm support please. Team: done in 1.4
Please internationalize this wiki. Team: sorry, we don't have enough resources so far
I do not like having to use the Up/Down arrows to reorder tracks in my playlist. I would love to see this switched to drag-control.
Also, the menus are very sparse. This may be what you were going for, but I think it is too sparse. It would be nice to be able to choose what panels to view in each of the view modes. For example, to be able to choose to view the Tracks Table from the menu while in the Display view mode. -LlamaNerds
Team: From jajuk 1.4, you can show any view in any perspective from the View menu -> "show view"
