 * Those styles are used for the watermark, title, download, and embed overlays 
   and are not tied to a particular player. Disabling them could lead to problems.
 * I’m working on a GUI for the shortcode that uses new built-in WP functions. It
   will be available in the next major release, which will be several months from
   now.

 * Thanks for you response. But…I want this plugin only in admin interface and for
   generating thumbnails, which is great. So in options in plugin there should bey
   some checkbox for disable load “kgvid_video_styles” (yes I know wp_dequeue_style).
   As you write about new GUI, look at awesome “shortcake ui” or maybe you can write
   script for own OEMBED tinymce generation of video block ( if I paste attachment
   url of video or url local /uploads/ video file).
 * Anyway – look at this amazing player -> [https://github.com/Selz/plyr](https://github.com/Selz/plyr)
   
   which can replace jw player 6-7:)

 * I see. I don’t currently offer the option to only use the plugin in the admin
   area. Feel free to manually dequeue the CSS files if you’re not using the shortcode
   at all. You’re not the first to ask for this and I will probably offer the option
   in the future.
 * Shortcake UI is no longer necessary for creating shortcode GUIs. As of version
   4.2, WordPress has [built-in systems for the functionality you’re looking for](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/04/23/tinymce-views-api-improvements/)
   and I will be using them.
 * JW Player has a massive user base, which counts for a lot. It looks nice and 
   functional, but I don’t know if Plyr ([with 80 WordPress plugin users](https://wordpress.org/plugins/plyr/))
   can replace it just yet.
