Title: Port of the week: cozy Author: Solène Date: 09 December 2021 Tags: portoftheweek Description: Presentation of cozy, a GTK audio book player, nominated port of the week # Introduction The Port of the week of this end of 2021 is Cozy a GTK audio book player. There are currently not much alternative outside of audio players if you want to listen to audio books. (HTM) Cozy project website # How to install On OpenBSD I imported cozy in December 2021 so it will be available from OpenBSD 7.1 or now in -current, a simple "pkg_add cozy" is required to install. On Linux, there is a flatpak package if your distribution doesn't provide a package. # Features Cozy provides a few features making it more interesting than a regular music player: * keep track of your advancement of each book * playback speed can be changed if you want to listen faster (or slower) * automatic rewind can be configured when you resume playing, it's useful when you need to pause when disturbed and you want to resume the playback * sleep timer if you want playback to stop after some time * the UI is easy to use and nice * can make local copies of audio books from remote sources (IMG) Screenshot of Cozy ready to play an audio book
