    Comments about MPV as an Alternative to IINA

    I am a former fan of VLC and moved to MPV.

    Hidden within this simple, clean and minimalistic interface, is a powerful player (if you look at the docs). With support for scripts it can do so much more.

    It is also good to know that many apps are a GUI front-end to MPV.
