I used MPC a lot some years ago, vastly superior to VLC player. The throne belongs to mpv now, though. Easily the best media player of all time.
If you run mac OS, try IINA, which is a fantastic gui for mpv
features
Since it's youtube-dl based, it's also how I watch most video content on the internet. It supports mac OS picture in picture mode, so I just open the stream in IINA and pip it into a screen corner. It's amazing.

Shinchiro builds every couple of days:
