## Description

PixelPlayer is a local music library manager and media player that supports offline audio and video playback. It provides tools for organizing personal collections by artist, album, or genre and includes a built-in editor for modifying audio file metadata tags.

The application features wireless media casting to stream content to compatible external smart speakers or televisions. It also includes a dynamic user interface that adapts its color palette and layout based on the artwork of the current track.

Playback capabilities include gapless transitions with custom crossfade, queue management with shuffle and repeat modes, and the display of time-coded synchronized lyrics. The software further provides audio tuning through equalizer presets and supports playback control via system widgets.
