FWIW, I switched to mpv after using mplayer2 for a while. See |
| 10 |
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/DOCS/man/changes.rst for a |
| 11 |
comparison between mpv and mplayer (and mplayer2). For example, on-screen text |
| 12 |
(like subtitles, or the position when pressing "P") is rendered using libass, |
| 13 |
which looks *so* much better than mplayer or mplayer2, or the addition of an |
| 14 |
on-screen display (using the new support for Lua scripting), and lots more. Oh, |
| 15 |
and both mplayer2 and mpv won't unpause when you change the window size. |

Perhaps you will, like me, see no reason for using mplayer after having gone |
| 18 |
through that document and/or trying out mpv ;) . |

(Perusing through the aforementioned link, I see that mpv added a replacement |
| 21 |
for mencoder, which mplayer2 lacks, IIRC. The referenced sections refer to man |
| 22 |
page sections.) |
