Using a different video player

Note: Depending on the video player you use, you may not be able to play videos from all supported platforms.

Using the Preferences

Note: When the PLAYER environmental variable is set, the player field is disabled in the Preferences.

Just change the value of the Player field in the Preferences. This value could e.g. be mpv or flatpak run com.github.rafostar.Clapper.

Using environmental variables

Note: This overrides any values in the Preferences.

To change the default video player, use the environmental variable PLAYER. You can for example set this variable in your .profile, e.g by adding PLAYER="myplayer" to your .profile. This will disable the Preferences field for changing the player.
