Meet Clapper: A Sleek Looking Linux Video Player for Minimalists
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Love minimalism? You’ll love Clapper.
|
||||
|
||||
Clapper is a new [video player for Linux][1]. Actually, it’s more for GNOME than Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
Built on top of GNOME’s JavaScript library and GTK4 toolkit, it blends naturally in the GNOME desktop environment. It uses [GStreamer][2] for media backend and [OpenGL][3] for rendering.
|
||||
|
||||
I like application with minimalist approach. While VLC is the Swiss Knife of media players, I prefer [MPV player][4] for the sleek, minimal interface. And now I think I am going to stick with Clapper for sometime.
|
||||
|
||||
### Clapper video player
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
[Clapper uses hardware acceleration][6] by default. It supports Intel and AMD GPUs and works on both Xorg and Wayland.
|
||||
|
||||
[Clapper][7] doesn’t use the traditional upper window bar. There are auto-hiding preference menu, mode changer and window control buttons for you to access a few features. This gives it a sleek, minimalist look.
|
||||
|
||||
It has three modes:
|
||||
|
||||
* Windowed mode: the default mode shows the progress bar and window control
|
||||
* Floating mode: the progress bar is hidden and the player is floating on top of other applications like the ‘[always on top][8]‘ feature or ‘picture in picture’ mode
|
||||
* Fullscreen mode: Player goes full screen, progress bar is bigger but they all auto-hide
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Clapper also has an adaptive UI which can also be used on Linux-based smartphones and tablets. So if you have got yourself a Pine Phone or Librem5, you can use Clapper on it.
|
||||
|
||||
There is support for subtitles with option to change the font. However, the subtitles didn’t work in my testing. There is also no option to explicitly add subtitles to a playing video. This is something that must be improved.
|
||||
|
||||
Like VLC, Clapper also gives you the option to resume playback from the last point if you open the same video file again. One of the [handy features I love in VLC][10].
|
||||
|
||||
Clapper supports playing videos from the internet as well if you provide the URL.
|
||||
|
||||
Here, in the screenshot, I am playing a YouTube video in Clapper. It is a beautiful song sung by a beautiful singer and actress. Can you guess which song or movie it is?
|
||||

||||

||||
### Install Clapper on Linux
|
||||
|
||||
Clapper is available in AUR for Arch and Manjaro users. That should not be a surprise for anyone. AUR has everything under the sun.
|
||||
|
||||
For other distributions, Clapper officially provides [Flatpak package][12]. So, please [enable Flatpak support for your distribution][13] and then use the following command to install it:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
flatpak install flathub com.github.rafostar.Clapper
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once installed, simply search for it in the application menu or right click on a video file and choose to open it with Clapper.
|
||||
|
||||
Clapper is far from being the perfect video player. However, it has potential to become a popular Linux application.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use it, please do share your experience. If you find bugs, please [notify the developer][14].
