Music player for XFCE

[lekkerlinux]

Which music player works well in Manjaro XFCE?

I inserted a CD of Slim Dusty and Audacious can identify it and play it, but when I click ad audio CD, it just displays file not found message and Clementine doesn't create folders for individual cd's.

Rhythmbox worked very well under Gnome but not in XFCE.

Gnome is very reliable but too heavy for my system, that's why I moved to XFCE.

I use "Parole" media player and find it to work well when using Xfce Linux distros although can't say how it works in Manjaro.

Yes, I have vlc but use it as a dvd player. Don't know how it can be used to save many music cd's to hard drive.

Parole is nice but it doesn't identify the artist or song. like Rhythmbox does.

I tried most of them, but although the play the music CD, there is no artist or song identification.

Rhythmbox shows everything after the CD is inserted and then I just use "Rip CD" and it puts it on my hard drive.

Unfortunately Rhythmbox only works well in Gnome.

I currently use cmus - a terminal based player for playing all of my digital music.
Extremely low resource usage. But cmus doesn't support CD playback.

So I use asunder for ripping tracks from CD and then add it to cmus's library and play via cmus.

I'm surprised! Whit Audacious under Slackware 14.2 CD is played whitout problems!! If you type dmesg | grep /dev/sr0 what response do you read?
