VLC 4.0 Media Player Eyeing New User Interface, Better Wayland Support & VR/3D
From what I can tell so far, I like it. I never really had a problem with the old interface, but this new one looks nice. I'm sure it'll play better with Wayland than the existing one, so I look forward to it.
I'd have really liked VLC to support HMDs much sooner. Linux is in desperate need of a good native VR video player.
It would be great if they finally remove the WMV bug in VLC (Linux) that has plagued it for years. That's the only reason why I use mpv, as it handles WMV perfectly.
Nice UI overhaul. Personally, I really like the UI that's inside the UWP version. This resembles that very much. (I know, that on Phoronix this statement is probably going to irreversibly add a negative connotation to the new UI, but to quote a classic: it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.)
I like the looks of that UWP version, but I don't see the resemblance between that version and the new 4.0 interface.
