There are people who like VLC, but for me personally, MPV has a much cleaner interface, better configuration options, and when it comes to streaming video, MPV absolutely destroys VLC (especially when changing playback speed while the video is playing -- VLC has the audio cut out for several seconds and MPV doesn't, and that's to say nothing of the MPEG glitches)

I am glad both MPV and VLC exist.

I switched to MPV recently for the same reasons. If it had support for playing disc media it would be the absolute king of video players imo.

It has support for it tho.

If so, then it definitely doesn't make it as obvious as VLC does. but good to know I suppose

edit: it only plays whatever the largest file it can find on the disc is, no menu / iso support. womp womp
