Gnome MPlayer als Linux-Alternative zu Media Player Classic (MPC)
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Gnome MPlayer is a functional but dated replacement for Media Player Classic. It shares MPC's goal of lightweight, no-frills playback using the MPlayer engine. However, it is discontinued, meaning no security updates or new feature support. For users who need a simple, low-resource player for standard formats and do not require modern interface polish or active maintenance, it works. But for most, VLC or MPV are better choices as they are actively maintained, handle more codecs out of the box, and offer better long-term stability. Use Gnome MPlayer only if you specifically want a classic GNOME frontend and accept the risks of an abandoned project.

Gnome MPlayer uses MPlayer's internal configuration and playlist formats. It can open standard video and audio files (MP4, MKV, AVI, MP3) that MPC plays. However, it does not directly import MPC's specific playlist file formats (like .m3u or .pls) without conversion, though standard M3U playlists are generally supported. There is no direct export of MPC settings; you must manually configure MPlayer settings to match your previous preferences.

Is Gnome MPlayer still maintained?
No, it is discontinued. The project is no longer actively developed, so you will not receive updates or security patches.
Does it handle subtitles automatically?
It can load external subtitle files if they are named correctly and located in the same directory, but automatic online subtitle fetching is not a standard feature.
Can I use it on non-GNOME desktops?
Yes, it runs on any Linux desktop environment, but it is designed with GNOME aesthetics in mind, so it may look out of place elsewhere.
