<ol type="1">
|
|
<li>Install VLC.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p><code>sudo apt install vlc</code></p>
|
|
<ol start="2" type="1">
|
|
<li>Open VLC and drag some music in.</li>
|
|
<li>While playing some music, open the Tools > Effects and Filters menu. Play around with the presets until you find one that sounds good.</li>
|
|
<li>Write down the name of the preset you used and then close VLC.</li>
|
|
<li>In a terminal, <code>cd</code> to where the music you want to play is.</li>
|
|
<li>In that terminal, execute this command:</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p><code>cvlc --equalizer-preset=INSERT_PRESET_NAME_HERE -I ncurses *.flac</code></p>
|
|
<p><code>INSERT_PRESET_NAME_HERE</code> should be in all lowercase. For example, the “Headphones” preset (which is what I use) would be <code>--equalizer-preset=headphones</code>.</p>
|
|
<p>The full list of valid possibilities is:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>flat</li>
|
|
<li>classical</li>
|
|
<li>club</li>
|
|
<li>dance</li>
|
|
<li>fullbass</li>
|
|
<li>fullbasstreble</li>
|
|
<li>fulltreble</li>
|
|
<li>headphones</li>
|
|
<li>largehall</li>
|
|
<li>live</li>
|
|
<li>party</li>
|
|
<li>pop</li>
|
|
<li>reggae</li>
|
|
<li>rock</li>
|
|
<li>ska</li>
|
|
<li>soft</li>
|
|
<li>softrock</li>
|
|
<li>techno</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>If your files are MP3 or some other format, replace the <code>flac</code> in <code>*.flac</code> with the actual file type.</p>

<ol start="7" type="1">

<li>Press the “h” key to open the help menu, which will show you the player controls.</li>
