<br />
== Platforms ==<br />
<br />
foobar2000 has been written specifically for the Windows platform, and there are no plans to port it to any others. However, although not officially supported, it is known to run on [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=54933 Linux] and [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=77261 Mac OS X] through Wine and WineBottler, respectively.<br />
<br />
== Features ==<br />
* Powerful open component architecture allowing third-party developers to extend functionality of the player, including the ability to fully replace the user interface.<br />
* Full Unicode support: File names, user interface, tagging, etc.<br />
* [[ReplayGain]] support: Both playback and writing ReplayGain information to file tags.<br />
* [[Gapless playback]].<br />
* Advanced [[tagging]] capabilities - through built-in [[foobar2000:Properties|Properties dialog]] and various optional tagging-related components.<br />

* [[foobar2000:Preferences:General:Keyboard Shortcuts|Customizable keyboard shortcuts]].<br />
* Support for transcoding all supported audio formats using the [[Foobar2000:Converter|Converter component]] (requires external command-line encoder executables for different output formats).<br />
* [[Secure_ripping|Secure]] [[foobar2000:Ripping CDs|CD ripping]].<br />
* Streaming support.<br />
