    In my opinion, MPV is even better. I mean, it is faster and has better codec support. On the other hand, VLC has a better user interface with a lot of preferences. As for Showtime, oh boy, it’s a clear beauty!

    For now I’m staying with MPV, because ffmpeg > gstreamer.

      I love VLC. I also love mpv.

      I like to think that VLC is for window users for them to get a taste of what it’s like to use Linux.

      Lol, what? Do people really care about the ‘speed’ of their video player in 2025?
