Movie Monad - Lightweight And Cross Platform Video Player

mpv and vlc exist, so everything else is useless

Never heard of Movie Monad. Thanks for sharing with us!

A bit off topic, but anyone knows why my Linux Mint doesn't play sound through HDMI? It worked fine on the Windows install.

I use mplayer, it's command bassed, but to the basics (and not so basic) only "mplayer file.mp4" it's needed. Also it's very customizable and if you need a GUI there is smplayer. I prefer it to vlc and mpv.

I think I still prefer mpv!
I can use it a makeshift music player too if I point it to my music directory !!

It looks awesome, I'll take a look. Thanks for sharing.

Looks pretty nice; But the haskell requirement is a deal breaker for me, alas. :)

looks pretty clean thanks for sharing ! : )

Nothing ever beat mpv for me. SMPlayer is also interesting

yet another MPV user... I also use Audacious for music and Kodi for binge watching TV shows

Arrghhh, another one to keep up with the plaque called app, snap, flat younameit... I find it in my repo, fine let's take a look. If i need to containerize it (if that word exists), ** NO!

>directory structure
thanks for not using the f word. and for showing this, really nice UI.

How can I configure it??

I'm happy with MPV so far.

Why does everyone like MPV so much? I tried it and saw that it hardly offers any options so I can't see how it's better than VLC. Can anyone explain?

That'd be a no go for me. Only because of that title bar at the top pushing the whole video down. Be great if it could be an overlay instead.

love you derek and also vlc

Vlc is on android too

potplayer is the go-to on windows, full hw decoding support, proper sound handling

mpv is okay on linux

Always ffplay for me!

First time hearing about this application. Thanks for sharing with us. Btw, I still prefer my combo: MPV for video and MPD + NCMPCPP for music

I prefer mpv for playing my videos because it is very light and fast but it isn't easy to install on Windows, something not really important for me but important for some people. There are plenty of good video players but most of that people will prefer use something they know well like vlc instead of another player, sadly, no matter how good it is.

vlc is quite good, but my preference is always mpv.

I really think mpv is superior than vlc in any aspect, and is also suckless.

tried the AUR ver... didn't work.

Really shitty cause it doesn't support subtitles, it says on the github that it DOES support, but i tried EVERYfuckingTHING to make it work, i tried dragging the file, opening a menu but it doesn't work. So i uninstalled. Very poor.

Thank you, Derek. Videos are bloat unless they play in ascii. Seriously, I like VLC but usually use MPV. I might try this out though.

mpv is the only video play you'll ever need.

Does it have support for subtitles and multiple audio channels?

AppImage was available from 1 year? 🤔😮😲

This comment is for the algorithm. Loving this channel.

any video players that work without x?
