    I just saw the screenshot of the early design of the new UI, looks like crap.

    I even disliked the change from wXwidgets to Qt way back in the day, I have come around and like the Qt interface now, I don’t expect that to happen with the new UI

      10 years later

      “vlc is updating their UI again! I liked the one we have now, this just looks stupid. I don’t think I’ll like the changes.”

        That’s fair, though the change from wXwidgets to Qt was fairly minor compared to this

      new ui is literal trash.

      media formats it already does, and it is expected to support nearly everything. but as far as a front-end for whatever tf they’re planning–there are plugins and extensions already, it should be there. not in the base code.

        Yeah, it looks like they are trying to port the mobile UI to their main program, going backwards in terms of usabillity on mainstream computers
