Update on Flathub.org
Windows right-click, open crashes SMPlayer when multiple vids are selected.
Unrelated but the new version has gotten rid of a bug which has been, well, bugging me a lot! MJPG videos used to have a 5 second pause on loading (not a problem in VLC). That's totally gone now! So please high five all the relevant people. Like, line them up, and then run down the line with an outstretched hand, and smack palms with every single one! Or give them tummy rubs. Either works.

Oh, I should add that I had run the previous commands in the instructions without issue.
Using install instructions from official page gives an error on Ubuntu: smplayer-skins is not available
Btw I used to use pot player back when I used windows. But now I have no need for it. I get thumbnail previews on Haruna. Also on MPV with thumbfast and uosc. Haruna works out of the box, but mpv needs scripts to have thumbnails previews. Both work fine though. Although Haruna more naturally works as a gui since unlike mpv its meant to. Base mpv is more a command line based player at least before you have any scripts.
You know there is a player you can use. https://flathub.org/apps/org.kde.haruna You go into settings > general > then you will see use thumbnail previews. Great for linux. You can just use Haruna. It'll work fine.

MPV has a script for thumbnail seeking but that's more work- https://github.com/po5/thumbfast Haruna is probably what your looking for though. As for mpv you'd probably want this UI instead of default as well- https://github.com/tomasklaen/uosc MPV can be made better with scripts which is annoying and doesn't appeal...

Hello, Thank you for your reply. I understand completely, but I think we should have waited before deleting it until the new version is available. This is counter-productive as my readers have reinstalled the previous version.
In version 24.5, the smtube button has been removed because it's obsolete and it will be replaced with something else in the future.
Why has this feature disappeared? It's not an evolution but a regression
F11 DON'T WORK
That actually works when using gpu with MPV, thanks.
Check if this works for you: In preferences -> advanced -> mplayer/mpv, type this in the video filters field: format=fmt=yuv420p
hey bud, can you please work on this. I get it that you can't be bothered, but this is a real problem
hey bud, even though you've had problems implementing it in the past, would you mind taking another look at it? the way you're doing things in SMPlayer right now really is cumbersome. like eg i can only have video equalizer (only works in gpu) or rotation (only works in direct3d).
idk what gui toolkit you're using, but i imagine that when you display the image in smplayer you just take the bitmap from mpv and apply it to a rectangle canvas that's part of the smplayer window. you'll have to resize that canvas depending on the size of the image coming in - but that should be the extent of it, i believe.
"not maintaining the aspect ratio" but you should be able to calculate the aspect ratio yourself. why is that a problem? "You can always pass the option --video-rotate in preferences -> advanced -> options for mplayer/mpv." thanks, but that doesn't work. i need to be able to rotate the video as it is playing, using keyboard bindings.
Using video-rotate within smplayer has some problems such as not maintaining the aspect ratio so the image it's shown distorted. I think it's not worth it to implement it. You can always pass the option --video-rotate in preferences -> advanced -> options for mplayer/mpv.
(bear in mind that the example in OP shows that video-rotate can be changed during playback, in that case by using a key binding)
so specifically here's the comparison: using a filter - rotation doesn't work, video is still horizontal: /c/Program Files/SMPlayer/mpv $ ./mpv.exe F:\test.mp4 --vo=gpu-next --hwdec=dxva2 --vf-add=lavfi=[rotate=PI/2:ih:iw] (+) Video --vid=1 (*) (h264 1560x892 23.976fps) (+) Audio --aid=1 (*) (aac 2ch 48000Hz) AO: [wasapi] 48000Hz stereo 2ch float Using hardware decoding (dxva2). [ffmpeg] Impossible to convert between the formats supported by the filter 'mpv_src_in0' and the filter 'auto_scale_0'...
ok, but the original post mentions video-rotate and not rotate. when i was looking up how to do this on mpv standalone (i didn't know before) people repeatedly said that video-rotate should be used and not rotate. so why not use video-rotate in SMPlayer?
Ok, I see. If I run mpv directly with the rotate filter and dxva2, I also get that error: mpv.exe video.mp4 --vo=gpu-next --hwdec=dxva2 --vf-add=lavfi=[rotate=PI/2:ih:iw] (+) Video --vid=1 (*) (h264 1280x720 25.000fps) (+) Audio --aid=1 --alang=eng (*) (aac 2ch 44100Hz) Using hardware decoding (dxva2).

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, the problem is with all videos. I believe the fact that you can't reproduce it might have to do with the fact that i'm on an AMD APU and you might not be. When I removed smplayer.ini, it would let me rotate, but that's only because it wasn't doing hardware decoding, so the framerate was like 2 fps. So I set gpu-next as the video output, turned on HW decoding, and did the following settings: performance/hardware decoding setting: d3d11va is the only one that gives...
I can't reproduce this problem in my computer, using smplayer 23.12. Do you have the problem with all videos?
Button bindings for "increase rotation by 90 degrees" and "decrease rotation by 90 degrees"
The screenshots can also be viewed here: https://imgur.com/a/llqNEKR
After zooming, pan gets reset upon fullscreen on/off and rotation and stop/play; zoom gets broken; subtitles off screen
I would appreciate this one as well
Video equalizer under GPU creates soft clipping
sorry, the title should read "video equalizer"
GPU equalizer does not work under direct3d
Rotation does not work when output is set to gpu or gpu-next, only direct3d
smplayer youtube support (yt-dlp.exe) issue
I'll try that. Thanks for the tip.
I think the problem is already fixed in the development version. https://github.com/smplayer-dev/smplayer/releases/tag/v23.6.0.10197

Finally found it! This bothered me for so long.

Hi, since quite sometime, access to opensubtitles.org has been blocked in my country. This must be the reason SMPlayer is unable to find and download subtitles any more. Every time I try, I get the message "Host api.opensubtitles.org not found". So my question is, is there a way to make SMPlayer connect to my account in opensubtitles.org, and be able to download subtitles again? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you in advance, Xenos
After installing and using default settings only "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OetMPpstT04" mentioned by you shows normal title. Many others shows some gibberish (see screenshot) . I found a workaround: changed Interface_Language in SMPlayer settings from "System settings" to explicit "Russian". After that even URL from playlist shows its title (but only after playing entry at least once -- unfortunately checkbox "get info automatically" in Playlist settings does not work )
Moreover, only "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OetMPpstT04" mentioned by you shows normal title. Many others shows some gibberish (ver. 22.7.0)

Size + and - (for subtitles), don't work. (Linux).
I am super puzzled, is there a reason of this to not be the default? I can only imagine its been because: A) some obscure legacy system that needs this defaults B) is it just some random decision that made sense at the time. Asking because it had been incredibly frustrating to try to take some notes form some tech talk video. Like imagine you spent some very distracting seconds, openned your editor, deciding where you should store it, naming and probably dating your note. Just to alt-tab into a blank...

Have a video (from premier pro) that suddenly shows with a light blue background (and should not have it) when played in SMPlayer, but when played in other players shows fine without the blue background...... Never saw this before after years of using the product.....don't know what has changed to cause this as prior versions of the encoded video showed fine....again, only has this strange background (that obscures things in the vide) in smplayer..... SMPlayer is running with all defaults, no changes...

It was fixed, topic close.
...plus... I just noticed that when I play ONE film (amongst 7 tried, nothing particularly different) the initial green screen remains as a vertical green band (semi-transparent) in the middle of the screen (~6% of the width) . (This didn't happen with the same film in an earlier version.)
Hi. I have SMPlayer v. 21 portable. I have a programmed keyboard shortcut for "stop". One press stops a video and closes the window - but then it re-opens and starts playing again! I remember reading somwhere that a single click now acts like a pause (?) but I can't find it again! - nor in the preferences. How can I change this infuriating behaviour? Thanks, regards.
Hi. I have SMPlayer v. 21 portable. I want to correct progresssive de-synchronisation of subtitles from an external .srt file but the FPS values are all grayed out. (I read that this happens with integrated subtitles in an .mkv - not surprising - but it that should be ok with an external file.) Thanks, regards.
Hi. I just updated SMPlayer from v. 20 to the latest version v.21 (portable) When I play a series of videos a blank screen flashes between each pair. It used to be black but now it is a dazzling bright green. I can't find a preference; I've read every line in 'smplayer.ini' and I've searched for "00ff00" in all files without success. Any ideas? Thanks, regards.
