Clapper Reviews

Clapper Description

GNOME media player that is simple and modern. Clapper is a GNOME mediaplayer built using GJS and GTK4 toolkit. GStreamer is used as a media backend by the media player and everything is rendered via OpenGL. The player runs natively on both Xorg as well as Wayland. It supports hardware acceleration via VA-API on AMD/Intel GPUs and NVDEC (NVIDIA) on mobile devices. The media player features an adaptive GUI. Clapper will use a majority of the unmodified GTK widgets when viewing videos in "windowed" mode to match your OS look. All GUI elements will change in color and size when the player enters fullscreen mode. You can also choose to display video only on top of any other windows. This gives you a PiP-like experience. Mobile-friendly transitions can also be supported. We have improved the GL/GLES context selection. It also has a few patches so that some functionalities work better in Flatpak versions.
