This is a major update to ASCII Media Player that drops true colour support in favour of achieving compatibility with both old and new terminals. (For example, macOS Terminal.app supported now)
If you wish to use the version with true colour support, view previous releases and the tc-version branch of the project.

What's new

  • added support for terminals only having 8 or 16 colours
  • true colour support has been dropped in favour of greater compatibility and more efficiency
  • added speed control to match frame rate with source video
  • used curses module to achieve improvements
  • dropped pause/play support. Will add it again soon
