Instantly replaced VLC on both my personal linux and workplace windows machine as everyday multi-purpose video player. Useful UI, good customization options, useful/modern themes, very keyboard friendly.

Smooth minimal UI, ligtweight, smart playlists recognize episode sequences, downloads subtitles in two clicks. Very keyboard friendly: volume, seeking, subtitle size can be conveniently adjusted without interrupting the view with menus. The only downside - development seems to be stalled for a couple of years.

The power of MPV but with a UI so you can actually use it without having to type a bunch of complicated command line text.
