I'm currently using a dual-boot setup with Windows 11 and Nobara, and I'm hoping to transition more of my media consumption to Nobara. I specifically need a media player that can handle some pretty unique audio formats like .SPC and .USF, among others. I've tried running Foobar2000 in Wine, but it crashes, which is frustrating! I've looked into several Linux players like Audacious, MPD, QMMP, Deadbeef, VNC, MPV, Clementine, and Strawberry Music Player, but they all seem to lack support for certain formats that I really need. If anyone knows of a native option that can work with these audio formats and allows me to organize my library by folder structure, I would really appreciate your help!

XMMS might be worth trying out too. It's got some nostalgia attached and can handle various formats pretty well! Just a thought!
Have you considered using VLC? It's pretty versatile and plays a ton of formats without any hassle. I've had great luck with it for odd audio files.
If you haven't tried it yet, definitely check out VLC! I find it the most reliable media player out there. Works like a charm for all sorts of files.
Definitely give VLC a shot! It's actually the best player I've used, and it seems to work well with tricky file types.
Yeah, for me too! VLC has been my go-to for all kinds of formats.
Honestly, VLC is usually my top pick for media playback. It's really straightforward and seems to support the widest range of audio formats I've encountered. Give it a whirl!
I totally agree with you! VLC has saved me a lot of times with rare formats.
