Good, but not perfect
Sergei-A
I like that this player tries to handle HDR videos properly. HDR result is not as good as QuickTime, but much better than most of the other (mpv based) players. I would keep this application as my default player. However, the recent version crashes too often, I hope the developers will fix this. Also I’d like to see more polished UI (like IINA or Eltima Player style).
Guter Player mit Soundproblemen

Movist ist ein genialer Videoplayer. Sowohl von der Bildqualität als auch vom schicken randlosen Design her. Ersetzt übrigens ganz nebenbei auch das inzwischen entfallene Front Row (über File -> Enter Navigation aufrufbar).Leider kann diese Version nicht wie der Vorgänger den Sound über ein extern per USB angeschlossenes Interface ausgeben.Für mich stellt das eine erhebliche Einschränkung da, deshalb nur 4 Sterne. Movist 0.6.8 bleibt installiert...
New Version with bugs and unusuable shortcuts (DE-Layout)
Mapp79
UPDATE: Hangs and captures all keyboard events...Movist is (was) my go-to app for movies and video tutorial because of its amazing shortcuts (zoom in and zoom out).Unfortunatelly i must have pushed a button and now don't hear any audio any longer. Mute and unmute doesnt help. audio track selected and unselected. somehow the interface got more complicated and its not clear where to find and check essential system settings.most new shortcuts are unusuable now and can't be easily remapped.Pity. I want the old one back!
