This is the page you want to be on if you wish to learn how to use and connect AIMP v3to our radio station. AIMP is a free Winamp-like multimedia client which is highly customizable and very lightweight (less than 25 Mb installed).

As you may see in this tutorial, my client looks a bit different from the default install or freshly installed version. This is just because I've simply customized it a bit with a different (included) skin and a color pallete swap which you will learn how to do below. All images are clickable to be enlarged (embiggened :D) so you can see easier.

Install, and launch the program, and locate the buttons on the upper left-hand side of the main window, these should be the same in the default theme as pictured.Click on the Preferences button as marked by the arrow.

Select whichever skin suits your preference. (You can download more skins from the link provided at the beginning of this tutorial marked AIMP v3) I have chosen the one in the middle called Pandemic All-In-One Simple, as marked by the 2nd arrow. (Can be downloaded Here by clicking the button labeled скачать, which is just russian for Download)

Now you should see a listing at the top of the list such as the one above the 1st arrow in this image. If you do not see this entry, click refresh. if you still do not see this entry, repeat the process, you might've accidentally clicked Cancel instead.

If you see the Celestia Radio entry, Select it as illustrated by arrow number 1, then click Play Selected as illustrated by arrow number two. At this point the client may lag or lock for just a moment, but should start playing after a second.

AIMP, short for "Artem Izmaylov Media Player," is a popular free audio player and media application designed for Windows-based computers. AIMP is recognized for its user-friendly interface, which is both intuitive and clean. One of its standout features is its extensive support for various audio formats. From commonly used formats like MP3 and WAV to more specialized ones such as FLAC, OGG, and beyond. AIMP also supports playlist formats, including M3U, PLS, and ASX, allowing users to organize and manage their music collections efficiently.

While it supports various audio formats, AIMP can still not read specially protected streaming audio formats. So, if you want to play your favorite YouTube music songs on AIMP, is that possible? Absolutely! Let's read this step-by-step tutorial together.

If we want to convert YouTube Music into standard audio formats, whether for YouTube Music Free or Premium users, we need the assistance of a reliable third-party tool. As long as you choose the right tool, you'll find that it's not as difficult as it seems, just a piece of cake.

TunePat YouTube Music Converter is an efficient and professional audio converter designed for YouTube Music enthusiasts, aiming to provide them with more freedom to enjoy their music. This tool can intelligently help us obtain audio content from YouTube Music, such as songs, albums, playlists, podcasts, and MVs. It supports various output audio formats, including MP3, AAC, WAV, and FLAC, which the Artem Izmaylov Media Player also supports. Follow the detailed instructions below to quickly complete the 10X-speed and batch download of YouTube Music songs or playlists!

Step 1 Begin by installing and launching the TunePat YouTube Music Converter on your computer. Upon opening the program, you'll notice an integrated window featuring the YouTube Music web player automatically. Alternatively, you can opt for the "Open the web player window." choice on the Home interface. Then, use the "Sign in" button to log in to your YouTube Music Free or Premium account.

Step 2 Head to the "Settings" interface to customize various output parameters, including the output format, bit rate, sample rate, output folder, and more. In the output format column, select the format supported by the program you intend to import later. You can also customize other parameters, such as:

Step 3 Return to the embedded YouTube Music web player. Open the song, album, or playlist you wish to download. Click on the blue "Click to add" button in the bottom right corner to trigger TunePat's automatic recognition.

After parsing, a pop-up window will display all available YouTube Music songs on the current page, with all titles automatically selected by default. If needed, activate the "Filter Converted" button to exclude locally existing songs and prevent duplicates. Select the titles you want and click "Add".

Step 4 Move to the Home interface. If you have more songs to add for a one-time conversion, choose "Add More." Otherwise, click "Convert" to initiate the process. TunePat YouTube Music Converter operates at 10X speed, provided your network speed is good. Wait for the completion of the conversion.

Step 5 After conversion, the output folder will pop up by default. Alternatively, go to the "Converted" module and double-click to play the history directly in TunePat. To play these converted YouTube Music songs in AIMP, open AIMP, left-click, select the target songs, drag them from the local folder to AIMP, and double-click to start playback. That's it!

In conclusion, effortlessly achieving the capability to enjoy YouTube Music within AIMP is now easily within reach, thanks to the detailed steps provided in this guide. The YouTube Music tracks processed through TunePat YouTube Music Converter offer many possibilities beyond your initial expectations. Apart from playing them on various preferred players, you can also utilize them for purposes such as enjoying them on Apple TV or setting them as alarms.

Keep the music playing! Take the next step by clicking the "Download" button to get this fantastic tool immediately. Whether you're amid a busy day or unwinding in the evening, this solution ensures uninterrupted access to your favorite tunes. Share this article with friends and fellow AIMP users, and let the rhythm of YouTube Music enhance your listening experience. Happy listening!

Playlists are an interesting feature here because as well as curating them by hand, you can also take advantage of the smart playlist option to create something to match a mood with less effort. On top of this, the program can be used to listen to streaming internet radio stations. AIMP can function as an alarm clock, audio converter and more.

This all good media players, AIMP has a unique look - this is certainly not your typical Windows program. It looks almost like a blend between a Mac and Linux app, and while this might sound off-putting, it works.

Once you have music playing, chances are you won't want to sit and look at the program (but if you do, you can enjoy a selection of visualizations) and AIMP has an interesting way of minimizing out of view. Rather than disappearing into a taskbar button, the program window disappears completely and can be accessed through a tiny tab that appears at the left of the screen when the mouse is moved near to it. This can be a little confusing if you're used to Alt-tabbing through applications, as AIMP disappears from view and can only be access via the side-of-the-screen menu.

Because AIMP has something of a different look to other programs, you might feel that it would be confusing to use, but that idea quickly evaporates. Basic playback options and playlisting are easy to use, and the audio converter -- which handles a highly impressive number of formats -- is a breeze to get into. For diehard keyboard users, there are plenty of hotkeys and keyboard shortcuts to ensure that program control and navigation can be achieved without ever having to lift your fingers from the keys.

The latest version of AIMP comes with an MP3 encoder, resolves an error that sometimes occurred when opening files via the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer, and fixes several other minor bugs. For full details, see the official release notes.

I (Windows OS user) am currently listening to some audio tutorials (mostly mp3 formats). The tutorial set contains hundreds of media files. I am requiring a function in the media player which helps me to know what I have already listed and what tutorials are left?

It is not sufficient for me to know what files are played and how often. As I am listening to these tutorials on my PC I cannot always keep the media player open. I may need to restart my PC at times. So, how will I know when I come back which tutorial I was listening to and at what position. The statistics regarding the frequency of the file and when it was last played is not so useful to me. This is because I will not have the info of the position where I stopped. I have to go through the files and sort them as per last played. But these are not so helpful.

According to this post on ehow.com Windows Media Player is supposed to have a play count that you can use to sort your library. I don't have Win7 right now, but I suggest you look into that as well because it is the easiest way in my opinion.

Media Player Classic can remember the last position of any file it was playing when closed. See How to remember positions within multiple files in Media Player Classic? for an explanation. I don't think it can handle an index of all files, though.
