Mac users: What video player do you actually use, and what’s still missing?

I m curious what people actually use for local video playback on macOS these days.

VLC, IINA, Infuse, QuickTime, something else?

Also curious what you mostly watch: movies/TV, anime, downloaded content, high-bitrate 4K/HDR, lectures, etc.

What s one thing you wish your current player did better?

Stoic — HDR video player for Mac - The Mac video player that gets HDR and Dolby Vision right

Most Mac players guess at colour: they ignore a file's colour tags, flatten HDR highlights and show Dolby Vision with a green or purple cast. Stoic reads what the file says, maps HDR to the headroom of the screen it's on, and tells you when a file is missing what it needs. Plays MKV, HEVC, AV1, Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HLG and 248 file types. Private folders, A–B loop, dual subtitles, on-device transcription. One-time purchase, 3 Macs.
