Frame Player v2.0 is the new unified, cross-platform release built on Avalonia, fully superseding the legacy Windows WPF v1.8.x path.

Highlights

• Exact frame stepping and frame jumps based on decoded display-order frame identity.
• Single-pane and two-pane compare review for original vs processed media.
• Pane-local and shared transport controls with timeline scrubbing and frame entry.
• A/B loop playback with clip export and side-by-side compare export.
• Audio playback when supported, with video-only fallback for silent or unsupported audio.
• Recent files, diagnostics export, Video Info, About, and Help surfaces.
• Bundled pinned FFmpeg runtimes; no Homebrew or external FFmpeg install required for released apps.
