QMPlay2 is a video and audio player. It can play all formats supported by FFmpeg, libmodplug (including J2B and SFX). It also supports Audio CD, raw files, Rayman 2 music and chiptunes. It contains YouTube and Prostopleer browser.
I use a few video players, but this one is my favourite when it comes to watching videos from YT, mainly because they get lag if I watch them directly in a web browser, but while I watch them with this media player, they play as they should. It is also a really versatile player, but it (sometimes) has problems searching for YT videos and I always have a problem in Linux in which it is really hard to use the seek bar it just moves wherever it "wants" but still one of my favourite media players.

QMLPlayer is extremely complete! Compatible with youtube-dl, it can search, play and download videos within the player itself; also provides support for the radio-browser.info repository; Lyrics; Own Equalizer; Modular interface; You can even create playlists from different sources, like a youtube video, a local music, and a radio, all together! If you are looking for a QT player for KDE Plasma, this is the best option!

Said about QMPlay2 as an alternative
It works with FFmpeg rather than a fork of it. It has a very nice play list which is easily updated. Its very efficient regarding cpu/gpu usage compared to other players I have used. You can watch Youtube videos with it.
