Mplayer, alternative Linux à VLC media player
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
MPlayer can replace VLC for users who are comfortable with a command‑line interface and want low‑resource playback. It handles the same container and codec range, so basic watching of MP4, MKV, AVI, MP3, AAC, FLAC, etc., works fine. However, it lacks the polished GUI, integrated library, and easy drag‑and‑drop playlist management that most VLC users expect. If you need quick, out‑of‑the‑box playback with minimal tweaking, VLC remains simpler. Power users who prefer scripting, custom filters, or tight control over playback will find MPlayer a solid alternative.

Ouvrir vos fichiers VLC media player
MPlayer can open any media file that VLC can play, because both rely on the same underlying codec libraries. Neither program creates proprietary project files, so there is no export format to convert; you simply open the same source files with MPlayer.
Passer de VLC media player à Mplayer, étape par étape
- Install MPlayer from your distro's repository (e.g., sudo apt install mplayer).
- Test playback of your typical files: mplayer filename.mp4.
- If subtitles are needed, add the –sub option or configure default subtitle handling.
- Create simple shell scripts or aliases for common playlists if you miss a GUI.
- Optional: install a front‑end like SMPlayer for a graphical wrapper around MPlayer.
