Submit portable freeware that you find here. It helps if you include information like description, extraction instruction, Unicode support, whether it writes to the registry, and so on.

Qmmp (Qt-based Media Player)

This program is an audio-player. The user interface is similar to winamp or xmms.

Settings: \Users\UserName\.qmmp (cache folder, skins folder, eq.preset file, playlist.txt, and qmmprc file)

Trolltech keys in the registry.

Supports Winamp 2 skins, but b/c it's written in Qt, memory usage is a little bloated.
is it stealth? ;)

License: GPL v2
RAM: 31 megs
Processor usage: never got above 3% on my dual-core 2ghz Intel
Setup: I'm running Universal Extractor on this one and then moving files from ýŸ€ and $INSTDIR. over to one folder. Or is the installer just a glorified unzip?

Cross platform and very linux-driven. 14 different Linux builds and FreeBSD.

It's a Nullsoft Installer, use 7-Zip to extract the files.

Thanks. Memory usage is obviously higher than I'd prefer and it's a very close copy of Winamp, but so far I'm liking it.

Wanted to post another look at the program that I think looks a lot better than the default one and is included in the download...

The latest version of Qmmp is 0.8.3. Although not portable I like it very much- I am especially impressed by its huge formats support. In fact Qmmp cannot play just few formats- LA (Lossless Audio), OFR (OptimFROG) and TAK (Tom's lossless Audio Kompressor) files. For me it is of extreme importance that Qmmp can render CUE files- a player that cannot read Cue sheets, no matter how good it might be, is useless.

When I try to download the latest version of Qmmp (0.8.6) I got 'Error 403 Forbidden':
http://qmmp.ylsoftware.com/files/window ... -win32.exe
Does anybody else has the same problem with this download? Any idea why I am denied access to this download?

Your link works just fine from my side -- http://qmmp.ylsoftware.com/files/windows/ works, too. :?:

@Midas
Thank you for testing the download link- yesterday I couldn't download the file but after I got your comment I tried and this time the download went fine, it seems the download problem was a temporary one.
