EMMS (Emacs MultiMedia System) is a media player for Emacs. It is written in Emacs Lisp. The name echoes XMMS. It is derived from an earlier Emacs-based player called mp3-player. EMMS has multiple back ends to connect to external players so EMMS can support many different audio and video formats, while remaining clean and small itself. EMMS is divided into three parts, the player back ends, media sources (which can be a local file system or a network stream), and the core player.[3]

EMMS implements a buffer-based playlist and queue. One of the back ends connects to MPD. Other backends are available for mplayer and gstreamer. Using Emacs server support, playlists can be built using a file manager such as ROX Filer.
