Destructive sharpening enabled by default
Font cache needs to be rebuilt on every file
Limited scaling options
libplacebo only used for tonemapping (as of 3.0.20)
Will not render any Advanced Substation Alpha subtitle with the ScaledBorderAndShadow flag in header
Bad with gifs
Corrupts the video decoding if it takes too much time to decode a single frame, other players skip the frames
Wrong chroma location (MPEG-1 for everything)
Uses point upscaling for chroma in screenshots
Can't go back a single frame
