    IINA info, screenshots & reviewsAlternatives to IINA
    IINA is born to be a modern macOS application, from its framework to user interface. It adopts the post-Yosemite design language and keeps up the pace of new technologies like Force Touch, Touch Bar and Picture-in-Picture.

    Revolutionary user experience.

    IINA simplified a lot of user interactions. In addition of traditional cascaded menus, it prefer using interactive UI components and gestures to give you intuitive, flexible and powerful control of the playback.

    Powerful functionality.

    Based on mpv, one of the most powerful media player projects ever, IINA supports almost all common media types (even GIF) and stably output high-quality video that optimized for retina screen. MPV's config file and script system are also integrated.

    This is the best FREE replacement for the built in quicktime player on MacOS. It can play content from any container. mov Mp4 MkV Avi WebM and many more. I was so frustrated with the lack of file format support with quicktime so I gave this a shot and it works great.

    WOW! I'll be writing a full review, but for now I'm impressed. Thanks for everyone being part of this.

    generally

    usually when I write a review it is mixed with some negatives. For now I cannot report any significant drawbacks to this app, so install, try, enjoy.

    • OK, if compared to VLC player than VLC player has its drawbacks to and one of the major drawbacks is it glitches on some recent encodes. I cannot report the same thing with iina. also, the playback history is a superior feature against VLC player. multiple instances are possible without a need of configuring a VLC droplet. but this review shouldn't be about VLC player.
    • A few improvements could be made or left at four be set in preferences:
      -- when using picture in picture mode you cannot fast forward or back.
      -- when starting the player the recent file could be started by just hitting the enter button, no mouse is needed.

    -- Also picture in picture latches itself either two left top or bottom or right top or bottom but not for example two middle or somewhere custom or getting out of the way if you try to hold the mouse over it or something like getting out of the way.

    Absolute best media player for Mac, does everything you need or might want it to, like vlc but just better, cleaner UI and lightweight.

    Perfectly in line with MacOS design. Lightweight, it just works, and has a few goodies like automatic subtitle download, picture-in-picture, etc.

    Love that it plays the next video file residing in the working folder so you don't have to go back to finder after a file finished downloading.
