bomi's Issues

Easy Deploy on Linux like Windows

Hi BOMI Media Player is an Amazing App but its a bit hard to compile and distribute it to all Major Linux Distros , So Why don't we ease everything up for the developers and users.

AppImage is a cool tool that creates standalone executables for linux that are self-contained , if we deploy qt shared library with bomi complied and wrap it up with AppImage , Any Linux user can just use bomi with a single click , and we can also create a gui installer with Qt Installer Framework.

Please go through this pages,

https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit - AppImage
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/deployment.html - Qt Deploy using Qt Shared Libs ( No Static Required )
https://doc.qt.io/qtinstallerframework/index.html - Qt Installer Framework

By using these , Linux users just have to download and open , no need for root access or to maintain .rpm or .deb files!

Whats on your mind , I would be happy to work on this !

[Request] Windows executable.

I'm currently using Bomi 0.9.11 for 64-bit Windows, which is found at the bottom of this page: http://bomi-player.github.io/downloads.html

As d-s-x's version of Bomi is being kept alive and updated, I'd like to ask for a compiled 64-bit version to download.

Thanks.

Remove custom Mpv

I know this is the most up to date fork but it seems that no one will take it up because of the custom mpv. Can you remove that and make the gui parts from the code thats there and have it access mpv directly that would eliminate so many problems. Also im 99% sure mpv includes most the stuff that was so custom at the time so all options should be able to be added to interface. im not sure if your commit of a29d40f was heading to that. I was hopeing that was the case. Any info would be appriciated.

hardcode-tray icon

Hi! Will bee good if you add another icon name for tray icon use from system icon theme on linux:
bomi-tray
If bomi-tray available > used from icon theme, if not > used bomi from binary.
Thx :)

New Simple and Elegant Installer for All Linux Distros and Windows Too..

Bomi is such a Beautiful and Powerful Player , but it is Hard to install on some distro , And there are no support on this topic anywhere. So My Idea is that , We Static Compile the Whole BOMI Player and Make a Static Compiled Qt Based Setup for Specific Architectures for Every Linux Distros(i.e Two Setup files , 1. Linux x86_x64 and 2. Linux x86). This Way , The Users just have to download the setup file and just install.(Just like LokiSetup)

For Example , Take a Look at the qt offline setup for Linux.

qt5 5.10: bomi doesn‘t start anymore

Yesterday in Arch there was an update to qt5 5.10 and bomi-git does not start anymore.

Recompiling bomi-git (makepkg) could not solve the problem …

Packaging

What about packaging? Like a deb or snap?
