Everything you missed. None of the bloat.
Three things this fork does better than anything else on your drive.
Plays everything
MKV, FLAC, that weird .ogm from 2004 — if it’s a media file, it just opens. The codecs are already inside. No “missing decoder” pop-ups, not once.
Featherweight
Under 12 MB installed and it launches before you finish double-clicking. Sips RAM, ignores your CPU, and never spins up a fan to play an MP3.
Truly yours
GPLv3, no accounts, no tracking, no upsells. Read the source, fork it, ship your own build. The player belongs to the people who run it.
