A new MacOS player it seems?

I just recently switched to Infuse 8 after buying a couple Apple TV boxes. The network sharing + iCloud timestamp syncing between my phone/macbook/multiple TVs is the best thing ever. My macbook is basically a media server for every device in my house. No need for annoying plex servers.

Not that new, I've been using IINA for years! It's pretty good.

IINA has been around for quite a while, it's a front end for mpv. Pretty much Just Werks, it's my standard video playback client.

> IINA - The modern media player for macOS.

Happy* IINA user here. I use youtube keybindings + 'video speed controller' (chrome extension) keybindings for quick speed up/down/reset and skipping back/forward through videos).

* It did have a problem with crazy power consumption, but I think that's been fixed (haven't noticed the problem for a few months).

IINA is the kind of app that disappears into the background. I've used it for years and almost forgot it's not a part of the OS.

Ah, I'll try it out thanks. I tried out https://mpv.io/ but wasn't a big fan.

This looks amazing, I’m just desperately trying to think of a use case for a universal media player that built-in tools couldn’t have handled in the last few years. VLC used to be a staple on my machines, but it’s really been a while since I’ve seen an obscure media file…
