Request for multilingualization support
Already in # 61, Can this software add multilingual support? · Issue #61 · stax76/mpv.net · GitHub | https://github.com/stax76/mpv.net/issues/61 It has been answered with “I don't have plans to make it multilingual unless it gets requested frequently.” And it is a “closed” topic….
Since this “mpv.net” was introduced in gHacks Tech News, A look at mpv.net, a mpv frontend with Everything integration - gHacks Tech News | https://www.ghacks.net/2019/07/05/a-look-at-mpv-net-a-mpv-frontend-with-everything-integration/ How to customize the settings in mpv - gHacks Tech News | https://www.ghacks.net/2019/07/27/how-to-customize-the-settings-in-mpv/ mpv.net has been attracting worldwide attention as an alternative to VLC, MPC-HC and SMPlayer. Therefore, the potential demand for multilingualization should be high.
To simplify the translation process, you can use a project site such as "poeditor.com" and "crowdin.com". Please consider multilingual support for the main parts of the GUI (Context menu, Config Editor, Input Editor, Command Palette).

At this time I don't like the idea but I leave the issue open so people can add their +1, if there are enough people maybe I will be convinced. Thanks for the feedback.
I start one fork for Chinese language. If someone need it , check mpv.net_CM However, I did not just translate it but change some things, for I have to made it satisfy my own needs.
Multilanguage is unrealistic for me when running the project alone because there would be too many requests. Sometimes I ask myself, however, if I should open mpv.net up for collaboration, then multilanguage would probably be doable. If it makes sense is another question. I'm certainly aware that learning English is no easy task.
Good news for buddies! With the introduction of v7.0.0.1-beta, mpv.net boasts multilingual support (Chinese and German for now)! If you haven't experienced it yet, give it a shot~ You can find more in https://github.com/mpvnet-player/mpv.net/blob/main/docs/changelog.md
