Serious question: why would anyone use a video/audio player other

For video playback ofcourse. For music playback nope, a generic winamp like player works much better and has a better UI

MPC-HC is more solid and harder for normies to ruin

I watch all my YIFY rips on VLC

I have never seen anyone ruin VLC. You'd have to download it from softsonic to really fuck it up.

VLC and MPV are my personal favourite

>>59435689
VLC is not closed sourced, you fucking idiot.

>>59435580
SMPlayer is literally the best media player. It's the only one that gets regular updates and works with wayland

What does that have to do with it not being a botnet? You're an idiot if you think all open source software is safe

Open source means you can download the source, remove any botnet features, and compile it yourself. Open source can never be botnet.

Okay then, you read through the whole VLC source code and report back, I'm sure I've just fallen for bait

Cause mpchc is better in every way and doesn't screen tear.
