How to Install DeadBeef 1.9.5<\/h3>\n

The music player website provides official packages for Linux, Windows, and macOS, available to download at the link below:<\/p>\n

\n
Download DeaDBeef<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

However, I personally prefer using the PPA repository<\/a>, which provides both GTK3\/2 and Qt5 user interface, as well as a few more plugins. Sadly, the PPA so far supports only Ubuntu 22.04, Ubuntu 20.04, and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and their based systems.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Firstly, press Ctrl+Alt+T<\/b> on keyboard to open a terminal window. When it opens, run command to add the PPA:\n
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:spvkgn\/deadbeef<\/pre>\n
    Type user password (no asterisk feedback) when it asks and hit Enter to continue.<\/i><\/p>\n
    \"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. \u00a0After adding PPA, update system package index by running command below, though it’s done automatically in Ubuntu 20.04+.\n
    sudo apt update<\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  3. Finally, install the music player with your favorite UI interface (GTK3 for example):\n
    sudo apt install deadbeef-gtk3<\/pre>\n
    As you see in the screenshot, you may also install the mpris2 plugin, Qt5 UI, file browser plugin, etc.
    \n    \"\"<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    Uninstall DeadBeef<\/h3>\n
    To remove the PPA, use command:<\/p>\n
    sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:spvkgn\/deadbeef<\/pre>\n
    And remove the music player via:<\/p>\n
    sudo apt remove --autoremove deadbeef*<\/pre>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
