- mhh__ 6y agoAm I blinkered in that I expect people contributing to a media player to know C, or do you mean in terms of working with the walls of apple's garden (haven't touched an apple product for five years now so I've never used swift)
- elcomet 6y agoIn addition it seems to be just an UI over mpv, which is written in C.
- symlinkk 6y agoWhat “UI” does a video player even need? Is the pause button prettier or something?
- tristan957 6y agoVLC is C++
- usr1106 6y agoDid you watch the presentation? He stressed that VLC is only C at its core. Of course whenever they interface with Qt they call into C++, maybe also in some other plugins.
- jagannatharjun 6y agoQt is only used for linux and windows. AFAIK UI for Mac will be written with Cocoa or something like that
