Help Bring VLC Support to Jubler

For years, Jubler has relied on mplayer for playback. Unfortunately, mplayer is now obsolete and in many cases unsupported. For example, Apple Silicon (ARM) Macs cannot properly use the preview library directly, because of these limitations.

On the other hand, VLC has become the de facto standard for media playback. Migrating Jubler to use VLC is the best long-term solution, but it requires a lot of time and effort to implement properly.

Instead of promising fundraising campaigns, Patreon tiers, or future “maybe” goals, I prefer to keep things simple and honest: I have already started the work to bring VLC support into Jubler.

If this feature matters to you, please consider supporting the effort with a donation. Every contribution helps cover the time and energy required to make this transition possible.

Thank you for supporting open source development and helping Jubler move forward.
