  I need a good touchscreen video player for Linux, and so far haven’t been able to find one. The annoying part is several gnome players look like they are designed for touch, but really aren’t.

  Playing streaming video through the browser works well, so problem doesn’t seem to be OS or hardware.

  There's also IINA - another MPV frontend for macOS.
