This may be my most favorite piece of software I have installed. Does what it says on the tin, nothing more nothing less. LASER-focused, I really love that about it.
mpv also comes close as great software.
- fooker 8y agoSignificantly more, actually. It can download videos from just about any website, and yes, including and especially NSFW ones.
- shmerl 8y agompv is using youtube-dl itself.
- s3m4j 8y agoWhich is great with twitch. Instant benefits : no chat, video decoding outside browser. On some laptops it makes a big difference.
- BeetleB 8y agoGoing off topic, but I must be one of those weird people who prefers mplayer to mpv. When watching a video, I like not knowing how long the video is. The OSD in mpv spoils it for me. With mplayer, I can set in a config file to have OSD off by default. Couldn't figure out how to do it with mpv. I think I had a few other things in my config that isn't supported by mpv (and some where the mpv team explicitly said they won't - mpv is mplayer without the bloat, after all).
- kqr 8y agoHuh, I wish I knew what you were talking about. I have used mpv for many years now, and I have no OSD while watching -- only when pausing, seeking, and otherwise interacting with it.
- BeetleB 8y agoI should have clarified. I don't want OSD when seeking, pausing, etc. When seeking, I get a glimpse of the progress bar. That will give me an idea of how much is left.
- mmozeiko 8y ago--no-osc will disable any OSD in mpv. osc=no in mpv.conf
- BeetleB 8y agoDoesn't work - I still get the OSD while seeking.
- johnp_ 8y agoHow about osd-level=0 with no-osc? In my (quick) testing this works.
