SMPlayer is a graphical user interface (GUI) for the award-winning MPlayer, which is capable of playing almost all known video and audio formats. But apart from providing access for the most common and useful options of MPlayer, SMPlayer adds other interesting features like the possibility to play Youtube videos or download subtitles.

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteYour this command didn't run:
sudo apt-get install smplayer smtube smplayer-themes smplayer-skins
instead this worked for me:
sudo apt-get install smplayer smtube smplayer-themes smplayer-themes
but this is working wierdly as the video is somewhere else and the player is somewhere else
I solved the problem by updating the mpv player(though I installed it just now, maybe they have an older version there):
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/mpv-tests
sudo apt update && sudo apt install mpv
Now everything works fine!
Thanks for sharing! Here would be more choices for you when you are looking for free media player.
