tangerine is a work-in-progress music player for the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch.

Note from developer:

The 3DS build is currently in heavy development as the shift is made from pp2d to citro2d. Please use the previous build instead of building yourself.

Features

  • Support for multiple formats (wav, flac, and mp3 currently).
  • Ability to play playlists.
  • Anything else the 3DS's sound application does.
  • Touchscreen controls.

Building

You can just run make or make all to get both 3DS and Switch builds, but for just one of them follow this.

3DS:

  • Make sure you have the latest releases of ctrulib, citro3d, citro2d, and 3ds-mpg123 installed via the devkitPro pacman.
  • Then type make 3ds to get a .3dsx, .smdh, and .cia.

Switch:

  • Make sure you have the latest releases of libnx and switch-mpg123 installed via the devkitPro pacman.
  • Then type make switch to get a .nro.

User guide

Put all music in /music/ folder on your SD card as traditional file browsing is not currently supported yet.

Controls

L/R - Skip forward/back a song

A - Pause/play

B - Return to file selection

Progress bar (touch screen) - Scrub through the audio (slow)

Known issues

Some flac files have issues with playback speed on hardware but work fine in Citra.

Scrubbing within flac/mp3 files may take several seconds on Old 3DS depending on the size of the file
