That article means: inexperience and unprofessional. Sounds about right.

#542One of the nice things about MPV is that you can apply FFMpeg filters at playback, allowing you to use a wide range of transformations on a source video without having to re-render it for each variation. We're using inexpensive industrial mini-PCs, Alpine Linux, and MPV as a custom digital signage solution at my company, and centrally managing them via Ansible.

What does an industrial minipc offer that an RPI doesn't in this case? :)
I'm using these: https://www.amazon.com/MeLE-Fanless-Computer-Ethernet-PCG02/.... Works great with Linux, and has a very customizable BIOS.

#546This is an extremely venerable project, formerly known as mplayer. There are half a million commits going back to 2001, and that’s just from when the CVS repo was converted to Subversion. streamlink and mpv on a fanless Minix z100 running Ubuntu was a nigh-on perfect Olympics experience. https://streamlink.github.io/ https://www.minix.com.hk/products/z100-0db-fanless-n100-mini...
I don't think mplayer and mpv are the same thing. It forked mplayer (among others), but mplayer is still its own thing.

If that feature would introduce a need to reactor or re-architect major parts of the the logic since everything has been built with the purpose of the playing video forwards supporting as many codecs as possible. Then, yes. And as a long time user of vlc video playback (and transcoding) I have never wanted to go back one frame. I always wanted to go back like 15 seconds, and that has worked forever.
Sure but that's completely different than claiming that it's out of scope or technically impossible. And that's completely different than your earlier example of implementing 3d rendering or something like that. They could just say that they don't want to do the feature, I think the pain point here is the claim that it is not possible.

> VLC is pretty bad and it shows the more you use it. Compared to what? Such a statement is meaningless without comparison.
Compared to mpv. Some would also say compared to mpc-hc.
can you please explain what you mean with this acronym?
EDIT: this seems to correspond to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPlayer

#549If you're on Linux, don't forget to enable hardware acceleration by adding hwdec=auto to mpv.conf. Works with AMD/Intel/NVIDIA. https://interfacinglinux.com/2024/01/10/hardware-acceleratio...

So you’re saying going forward 1 frame in a video is in the scope, but going back 1 frame is out of scope. Weird stance.
