Welp, w/e.

Anyhoo, about to go through these two and a couple more apps, and compile new versions for Excalibur using the newer libraries.

But yeah, I don't know what else to say beyond that for now.

2. I promise you I could install it on your machine if you have the right libraries, it's not debian-specific, it's just yad, bash, ffmpeg and gtk.

3. I'm not opposed to making an appimage of it, just busy with other things, I have a lot of apps to maintain now in addition to multiple Vuu-do and Devuan isos, and to be honest I don't see it getting enough traction to warrant a lot of extra work on it, only a few people will like it, most want the extended functionality of larger players whether they use those features or not.

Myself I think it's a beautiful script, elegant in it's size and brevity of code, leveraging ffplay to do the heavy lifting, the simple workarounds for various issues are actually quite groovy, I think a lot of people when faced with those challenges would have simply said screw it i'll just use mpv for the backend, and then what you would have is just another set of window dressings for mpv of which there are plenty enough already.

I made it for me.
I made it for the challenge.
I made it for the learning experience.
It works and I love it, mission accomplished, level-up complete. I just share things I make on the odd chance someone might like 'em.

Good to know.

Although making an appimage would still be a good idea. Then non debian based distros can use it.

@greenjeans I actually wonder how much cpu usage your video player uses compared to like mplayer or mpv.

Oh I can pretty much guarantee it uses less, just playing a video itself is likely the same, but those players (even mpv which is very basic) have a lot of features that require constant system calls and checks, the progress bar is one.

Although it might not matter.

I was only curious.

Pity you can't make it compilable by source using making it compatible with my distro though.

Although, would a self contained appimage be possible? Or do you not know how to make one?

I wondered

@greenjeans I don't see those ones in Hyperbola. Although something else might exist, not sure.

Its also possible they might have used to exist and I have them still, but I never deleted them. sorry I can't be much more helpful.

No worries my friend, I am so thankful that you tried to test it in the first place! FYI it works swimmingly in Vuu-do, maybe download it and give it a try.

In general to do a manual install, extract the .deb, drop the 3 scripts in /usr/local/bin (assuming that's in your $PATH), drop the .desktop in /usr/share/applications and that's it, works great on Devuan (daedalus).

The .deb will draw in the depends, but doing it manually make sure you have gtk3, ffmpeg, yad, and bash.

Srsly bro, just install the .deb, it will put everything where it needs to be and set proper permissions.

Error: Could not open database /home/user/.local/share/vsvp/vsvp_db

I got that error and whenever I load vsvp  and something peculiar  also happens

This is very peculiar
