      Yet some people on here like shilling mpv. I’ve used both but vlc makes me feel at home.

        And the developers behind VLC seem like very cool people, too!

          The one thing I prefer about MPV is its ability to navigate frame-by-frame both forwards and backwards. That feature is useful for finding the right frame to screenshot. VLC can only do it forwards. Reading the feature request or whatever on the VLC repo, the devs keep shutting down suggestions with stubborn reasons why it can/will never be implemented.
