Other than regular media files, I use VLC to stream live TV fairly often across multiple devices. Got a HDHomeRun and it just broadcasts UPNP streams that VLC can view. Also tried streaming with OBS over the local network and VLC can watch it, no 3rd party servers required. Only OBS and VLC over the LAN.
I don’t think some of you whippersnappers get it. We used to have to download every codec under the sun. VLC having zero compatibility issues was insane in 2001.
mpv for me just works and I don't even touch the config I put in default language for subtitles and audio but other than that I've not touched the config and everything just plays
Yeah I've always had issues with VLC on Linux, specifically the video/audio cutting off at the end.
It could be fixable but I'm also kind of dumb so. I just switched to Haruna which I think uses mpv? It's been great
