From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

VLC is also less accurate to the source than mpv is.
See the notice on this wiki that contains some comparisons.
I don't know the full details but this is a quote I have seen from reddit about VLC:
It is probably possible to get things in order by digging into the settings in VLC, but mpv prioritizes accuracy by default.
For me I got mad at VLC cause it was opening video track in separate window for some reason.
