celluloid VS mpc-hc

Also their readme ( https://github.com/celluloid-player/celluloid ) suggests there is an RPM package via dnf. Why use flatpak?

Personally I use the mpv-amd-full-git package with the Celluloid fronted. Haruna works fine but it loses some functionality compared to Celluloid, like adding an external audio to a movie. Haruna is far superior in terms of front-end design.

Celluloid

gnome-mpv was abandoned and forked into Celluloid: https://github.com/celluloid-player/celluloid

For those who don't know, Celluloid (which ships with mint) is just a better (imo) frontend for MPV

Both VLC and MPV frontends like Celluloid give you keyboard control over playback speed.

There are GUIs based on mpv that provide a user-friendly interface and just use mpv for playback, see Celluloid [0].

Your link is the old/abandonware mpc-hc, here you'll find a more recent version

https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc

And just in case you are playing this on a PC, try playing them with either VLC or Media Player Classic (up2date clsid2 fork), both are capable of playing these files.

I have had no problems with MPC-HC: https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc/releases

https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc Clsid2 was immeadiately it's successor

https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc/releases/ it says march 3rd and its the same one k lite codec uses https://codecguide.com/download_kl.htm

MPC-HC is the premier Windows player. It has pitch corrected playback speeds. Alternatively, Audacity can as well, but it's more complicated. MPC-HC is also the best movie player you can get.

Open releases on the right side of the page, go to a version of your choosing and at the bottom of the post in the Assets section choose whatever binary you need. Alternatively, you could use a windows packet manager such as chocolatey, for example, and it can handle all that for you. They do have both outdated and the modern fork of MHC-HC
