Local Player

Does the fact that the media player is broken after the newest update got you down? 
Do you just need to listen to some music? 
You should use Local Player.
It’s a music player right in your browser. 
It plays mp3, ogg, aac and m4a files. 
 

After you download it, and open it and just click the + button and select a music file to play from your download shelf. You can Ctrl + click multiple files in the open dialog to add more than one song at a time. Now Just double-click the file name in the file list, and it'll start to play that file. 
It’s still in early development but it works good for playing all your local music files. It’s even got some keyboard shortcuts just type ? and you’ll see them, some even work from other tabs. You can shuffle songs and repeat one or all songs if you want. You can even open multiple tabs of different Local Players. There’s also different color schemes to choose from. It shows the track info in the tab at the top too.This is a must have app.

  1. Sweet, just what I was looking for since the regular media player isn't working.

  2. ** I found a workaround for the regular media player. Press ctrl+o to open a file. Instead of clicking on the mp3 file to open it, click and hold/drag the file to the browser bar at the top and release it in any open space. A new tab will open and the mp3 file will be played on your cr-48.
