I don’t think some of you whippersnappers get it. We used to have to download every codec under the sun. VLC having zero compatibility issues was insane in 2001.
And foss, all the time.
The human devs showing us humanity.
MPV is better than VLC.
VLC for when I just want something to play.
MPV for when I’m ready to speak the voodoo into mpv.config.
mpv for me just works and I don’t even touch the config I put in default language for subtitles and audio but other than that I’ve not touched the config and everything just plays
This. I love VLC, but it let me down today when it couldn’t open an m3u8 stream that MPV opened with ease. No config meddling needed.
Every time I’ve tried to use MPV I get codec issues. VLC just works.
Yeah I’ve always had issues with VLC on Linux, specifically the video/audio cutting off at the end. It could be fixable but I’m also kind of dumb so. I just switched to Haruna which I think uses mpv? It’s been great
I miss Media Player Classic. No Linux version from what I understand, and MPV didn’t do it for me.
I liked when the cone was flocked with snow, and wrapped with ivy, about a month ago. It’s so festive!
They used to put a little Santa hat on top of the cone.
Oh Yazz! I do recall.
Keep doing that!
Other than regular media files, I use VLC to stream live TV fairly often across multiple devices. Got a HDHomeRun and it just broadcasts UPNP streams that VLC can view. Also tried streaming with OBS over the local network and VLC can watch it, no 3rd party servers required. Only OBS and VLC over the LAN.
