Who is using vlc when mpv exists?
I mean the no-gui all keybinds thing is obviously for a niche market, a lot of people won't like that
There's plenty of ways to add more functionality with user scripts, also lots of front ends to pick from.
i do, because i never heard of mpv and i will not learn it now (but maybe later when i have more time)
Its worth it to try, it's much faster than vlc and highly configurable.
Of you have a potato PC, of course, but if you don't, both are great players.
Yea if you have a potato pc then vlc is probably the better choice, mpv is built to perform on newer hardware. Although, I have never tested as I don't have a low/old spec PC laying around anymore.
