The Snap Store will undergo scheduled database maintenance on July 5, 2026 22:00 to July 6, 02:00 UTC. During this time, you will not be able to install or update snaps. No user action is required and services will automatically resume once maintenance is complete.
OMXPlayer is a commandline OMX player for the Raspberry PI.
It was developed as a testbed for the XBMC Raspberry PI implementation
and is quite handy to use standalone.
OMXPlayer can not be used with the KMS driver on Ubuntu Core, make sure

set "gpu_mem=128" (or higher) when playing 1080p60 video.
