I've heard vlc has issues with properly displaying dark colors/black stuff. That was a couple years ago, maybe it's not true anymore.

there aren't black people in anime so you're the only one experiencing this problem

there's more black people in anime than in japan. occasionally they even aren't horribly offensive stereotypes.

very occasionally.

my first experience with apple products was quicktime in the 1990s. that was when cd singles were a thing and often they'd put the music video on them as a bonus for computerhavers. the ones that used quicktime always had worse video quality but also larger file sizes compared to the others that used mpreg-1 or whatever.

apple is bad.

quicktime was also like the one and only thing that could go wrong installing myst/riven. i guess it was their fault for using it. but i recall many pains in the rear end over the years.

In the early web era apple used to host a ton of movie trailers, of course in quicktime. If you needed to watch a lovely 320x240 trailer of 3 ninjas kick back or whatever the gently caress garbage movie was coming out soon, apple would hook you up

windows media player was the best cause they put pause and start on ctrl+p instead of the space bar so you wouldnt accidently pause your videos. thats some dedication

I have never been annoyed by the spacebar pause.

I have been annoyed when spacebar hasn't paused.

:agreed:, pause/unpause is literally what the spacebar is for. making it require two button presses is dumb

i hate the stupid facebook web player thing for video. you click once to start a video, which is good. but if you click a second time then instead of pausing it like literally every other thing does it just makes the video bigger :pwn:

i like that dealie on twitter where clicking starts the vine/gif playing, then clicking a second time causes it to restart from the beginning??, and clicking a third time actually stops it

i like when it starts playing without being clicked at all but with sound off, then when you click on it it's like "oh wow wtf so you mean you really did want to watch it??" so restarts it with sound
