So it seems like a lot of people dislike VLC.
Why is that? What player do you folks like to use?
I use MPV or MPC-HC depending what im doing and in what OS i'm in.

I use VLC
I use VLC for music and MPV for videos. Fite me.
>>59356821
I love VLC :3
VLC will play pretty much anything you throw at it, but it could do it better. It works fine for most people but /g/ doesn't settle for anything which isn't crystal performance.
>>59356821
I use it. I love it. I'm out of the loop too I guess.
>>59356821
No hardware acceleration support for x265
PotPlayer best player
brb, installing fonts LOL
I'm using VLC, MPV is for authists.

Not a fun of the name, but I will check it out.
>>59356986
Come again?

Sometimes when loading something with subtitles (mostly fansubs) VLC will try and 'recache' the fonts or something for a good few minutes.
>>59356821
I dislike it because of pic related.
I use MPC-HC.
What about SVP, folks?
>>59357097
It's not a player, you dipshit.
>>59357116
i know
i just want your opinion

>MPV is for authists.
And people who can spell.
>>59356821
I dunno I use MPC because that's what I've always used.
So VLC fags, explain that shady as fuck "splat-setup.exe" file on the official 7zip/zip clients since version 2.0.7 onward.

I don't use Windows so I wouldn't know.
i stopped using it a few moths ago because i got tired of having to wait 10 seconds to watch a video when booting up the app for the first time and having to wait 3+ seconds to watch any video afterwards. There were also a lot of random errors and bugs. Switched to Potplayer as my main because it has sexy skins and i use MPC-HC as a backup.

Hating VLC is a wintard thing.
Doesn't fully support HEVC.
I use MPC-Be

VLC is botnet
>>59356821
MPV for my old revived computer.
MAD for my main.
VLC has no where else to go.
>>59358090
madvr is not a media player
>>59358114
And what are you going to do about it? Correct me?
>>59357569
madshi's autism disorder
Because I can't run it as root without editing the config, and every time it receives an update I have to edit the config.
>>59358149
>>59358136
...yeah
I can make it do this, but the only time it happens is when I'm streaming a file over SFTP because I was too lazy to just download it.
>>59358073
Because the CIA targets it for data exfiltration due to how popular it is? VLC is shit for plenty of reasons, no need to lie about it.
What's the best software to simulate that thing tvs do with up scaling the frame rate? I want to upscale my video to 120hz, I have a 144hz monitor and a dedicated gpu
>>59356821
>Fucked up colors
>No hw acceleration
Why would you use VLC when there are just better options
>>59358304
Why are you still using Windows?
>>59358385
>implying I do
>>59357148
I have it. I like it even though the artifacts can be really annoying.
>>59356821
It's good for a lot of people since it plays almost anything, but mpv (or mpc-hc +madvr if you don't like mpv) is just better for watching high quality chinese cartoons.
