What's a good alternative for this on GNU/Linux?
It sucks at skipping through large files. Built in 'Videos' on gnome is actually somewhat decent but muh codecs
In other words - /mpv/ daily thread.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/mpv-tests
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mpv
or just do the last command but it'll be a few versions behind
it'll literally play anything and everything without config & if youw ant to get fancy you can config it

Just be aware, it doesn't have much of a UI. It works well enough, but I stick with VLC since it doesn't give me much trouble.
>>59807956
what more do you use in the UI?
I've never used anything in vlc ui back int he day.. same hotkeys really
>>59807790
MPV or Bomi
>>59807956
What the hell do you need the UI for? You're watching a movie not playing a videogame. All you need is pause, seek, audio/subtitle toggle and volume control, all of which is in the MPV UI.

Look, I'm an idiot who's used to having a GUI with shit I can click on. It's just a matter of personal preference.

How thoughtful.

My first OS was Windows 95. Right now I'm using Antergos with KDE since it's the closest DE there is to Windoze. Old habits die hard.

It is:
hwdec=cuda-copy
vo=direct3d
just use smplayer famalam
I have smplayer, mpv and vlc in my linux. I mostly use mpv, but sometimes I used the others because they have GUIs.
I just tried vlc for the first time... and probably last
>>59807790
MPV

Best solution to anyone too retarded to simply use mplayer. Only wish those faggots from smplayer wouldn't ask for donations in a pop-up on the fucking program.
I understand they need the schekels but pop-ups of anything but the immediate functions is just Microsoft-tier in terms of respecting the user

I'm a GNOME man myself.
>>59808450
And?
>>59808454
This is with your settings
>>59808369
Stop being stupid. Also tits or gtfo.
>>59808798
Couldn't agree more on the smplayer issue.
but mpv > mplayer.
