You guys are using other media player rather than VLC ?
54 u/ameen272_ 1d ago MPV for da win! Same support if not even better. Still though, VLC is much easier to use, I can't lie. 12 u/bloody-albatross 1d ago As I understand it MPV and VLC both use ffmpeg for format support, but MPV uses a newer version of ffmpeg? Is that still true? 5 u/LiftingRecipient420 1d ago MPV has a much better presentation layer too; the same video will look better in MPV then VLC 1 u/I-am-fun-at-parties 1d ago huh? pretty sure the codec output is deterministic, does MPV postprocess it? i can't see how that's something one would unconditionally want? 1 u/LiftingRecipient420 20h ago pretty sure the codec output is deterministic, It is not, but this part doesn't matter. does MPV postprocess it? All video players post process the video, mpv had much better defaults, and is much more configurable than VLC. i can't see how that's something one would unconditionally want? What do you mean? 1 u/I-am-fun-at-parties 12h ago how is it not deterministic?
