Linux users may have problems installing using pip. Two additional libraries that I have modified need to be installed:pip install git+https://github.com/xfangfang/pystray.git pip install git+https://github.com/xfangfang/pyperclip.git

For advanced users
- By loading the Macast-plugins, Macast can support third-party players like IINA and PotPlayer.
For more information, see: #how-to-use-third-party-player-plug-in - You can modify the shortcut keys or configuration of the default mpv player by yourself, see: #how-to-set-personal-configurations-to-mpv

For developer
You can use a few lines of code to add support for other players like IINA and PotPlayer or even add additional features, like downloading media files while playing videos.
