mpv is a video player, vlc is in addition a streaming media server. It seems right that mpv shouldn't be implementing something like chromecasting. Have you tried implementing a simple cast function as a lua script? Seems like it should be quite simple using another command line casting tool, at least for local files.
- kkarakk 8y agoif i'm doing it myself why do i need IINA? these things are just niceties i know but the competition has the niceties built in
- ubercow13 8y agoThe competition has a different goal and focus, and what you miss out on in return is an abosolute focus on video playback quality and correctness, which vlc seems to have a reputation for falling behind on compared to mpv. For example vlc doesn't have colour management functionality
- kkarakk 8y agoi understand mac is a preferred tool for video editors and thus color management may be considered to be a high priority but as a software professional whose only dealings with color are "set contrast to high", this product seems pretty much the same as vlc to me
