About Baka MPlayer
Baka MPlayer is a free and open-source, cross-platform, libmpv-based multimedia player. Its simple design reflects the idea of an uncluttered and enjoyable environment for watching tv shows. Gesture seeking, smart playlist, dim desktop, hardware accelerated playback (vdpau, vaapi, vda). YouTube playback support (and others). Multilingual support (we are looking for translators!). Baka MPlayer was designed around the font called Noto Sans. Noto Sans was used because of its open-source nature and its broad support for Unicode characters. Having the correct font installed insures that what you see is what was intended. By default, Baka MPlayer will compile in English if no language is specified during compilation. For more configuration options see the configure source file or read the manual.
