About UMedia

UMedia is a free, open-source, cross-platform media player based on heavily customized forks of mpv and FFmpeg.

Philosophy

• Correctness over convenience. If a video is encoded at 23.976fps, it should play at exactly 23.976fps. We don't apply hidden smoothing, edge enhancement, or dynamic contrast.
• No bloat. The GUI is minimal. The core engine is built in C. It launches instantly and uses minimal RAM.
• Zero telemetry. We don't want your data. We don't track your IP, what you watch, or how long you watch it.
