[Answered] Video players that look like IINA, or can?
(lemmy.world)
Edit: I'm now enlightened and use mpv, I really like the ModernZ OSC (on-screen controls), and uses config files.
IINA is only on macOS. I looked up linux alternatives but none of them seem to have similar looking UIs, at least out of the box. I want the player UI to float on top of the video + with a blurred background, it as shown in the image; or at least the ability to theme it like so.
I think it actually uses GStreamer as a backend which is a bit unfortunate because HDR support is either nonexistent or hit or miss with GStreamer at the moment. I’ve also had worse performance with GST over MPV, but most videos and codecs are fine. It certainly integrates better with the GNOME environment which may have been a driving factor in the decision to use it over MPV.
