  • For advanced users

    1. By loading the Macast-plugins, Macast can support third-party players like IINA and PotPlayer.
      For more information, see: #how-to-use-third-party-player-plug-in
    2. You can modify the shortcut keys or configuration of the default mpv player by yourself, see: #how-to-set-personal-configurations-to-mpv
  • For developer
    You can use a few lines of code to add support for other players like IINA and PotPlayer or even add additional features, like downloading media files while playing videos.
