You can rawdog the libavcodec far more robustly via ffplay, vlc def struggles on a decent amount of media still.

Very true, unfortunately if something makes money other companies will line up to copycat even if the real product is licensing they don't have full access to.

If something doesn't open in VLC your OS is probably not set to open that file type in VLC

It works better because everything else is geared towards maximum monetization to the direct detriment of the user and the UX. Those alternatives suck simply because "working better" on its own is financially worthless to those selling this shit.

That's the logo for a multi-billion dollar corporation's built-in media player for their flagship OS? It looks like one of my side projects.

Had to install VLC last week because the Windows player didn't have the codec to play a video someone sent me from their smartphone. Seems like a pretty common use case to not have figured out..

Mpc is significantly better than VLC.

I could never get VLC to player videos without weird video issues.

Best way to reward them would be to be like them.

Are you on linux and are describing this issue where VLC cannot be reopened after exiting without logging out and logging back in?

They make you pay for some codecs, it might have been that.

So serious question, why not take the money, become ultra rich, then immediately start a nonprofit to recreate VLC Origin
He gets to be rightfully rich, and he funds and protects a free project.
