+BONUS: Matching Firefox Style for the dark themes available here .
EXTRA STUFF!!! make sure you checkout the 2 matching PotPlayer skins: Simplify Light for PotPlayer and Simplify Dark for PotPlayer .

Thanks! Sadly, it seems it doesn't scale correctly to 200% DPI on a high-res monitor: imgur.com/a/foyPsVp Merry Christmas to you as well

It's an old theme that hasn't been updated for years (2016.01.26). Back then hidpi monitors weren't a thing.
I would suggest to update to Windows 10 and try my win10 themes which most of them work great at 200% scaling.
