The SMPlayer Project - ( Open Source)
Easy to use and very simple, SMPlayer is a multimedia player that plays videos without any codec problem.
SMPlayer is a multimedia player that does not require the intervention of external codecs to recognize the different formats used. Thus, the application is able to read all video formats (AVI, MKV, OGM, MPEG, VOB, 3GP, ASF, MOV, WMV, MP3, OGG, etc..), DVD and Internet streams.
This application allows to resume playback of a movie where it was left off and also keeps the subtitle settings, sound settings, etc that were used for that movie. Other features are available such as audio equalizer, interlacing and noise filters, adjusting audio and video synchronization, etc.
It comes with a command line interface, it is very flexible and fast in execution of various queries. It is also known for few CPU resource consume.
SMPlayer allows multiple speed playback and seeking by mouse wheel which makes it very easy for the user.
- New option to send the audio to the specified audio device. It can be useful to send the audio to a TV via a HDMI cable or a bluetooth device.
- Some improvements on the playlist. Now it's possible to hide any column (right click to see the options). The search field is also hidden by default, a new search button shows/hides it. These changes are intended to prevent the playlist window to be too wide.
- Due to bugs and problems with Qt 5, the packages for Ubuntu are now built again with Qt 4 by default.
- Bug fixes.
