I installed SMPlayer. It is a GUI for MPlayer, but
dnf download mvp and mot mplayer, so go figure.
It works though.
smplayer depends on mpv/mplayer. And mpv is based on mplayer.
dnf -C repoquery --deplist smplayer
vlc has one or two features I like. But:
I'm running mpv since ages, after running mplayer before. And even on
Windows I used it ("mpv.exe", IIRC) And never looked back again: mpv's
options to play anything that has video or audio in it are
uncountable. Just have a look at the documentation.
mpv is mostly keyboard-driven - so if someone doesn't like that ...
For me at least this software is a lot easier to handle that any
GUI-based player I know about: e.g. if one wants to play a whole
folder with files in it, all that's needed is:
mpv /path/to/some/folder
to add a window with info about the files it plays, just add
"--force-window" to the previous command. Fullscreen: type "f".
Typing 'i' then gives the specs of the file. Capital "I" makes the
info stay.
And if folks are too lazy to type (I'm nearly always lazy) they can
run mpv with an xbox controller, turned with a nice driver (xboxdrv)
into a remote control.
