Smplayer

by Clair on September 7th, 2008

I would’ve taken screenshots of Smplayer at work on my computer right now, it’s just that it’s not working right :( For some reason or another the video looks quite saturated when I try watching it on Smplayer but it looks ok on VLC and other players. Hrmm. But I’ve used Smplayer on Windows before and it’s a really great way to watch videos.

It’s very convenient because of the user interface. You get a menu with options on whether to include subtitles, etc. At the bottom of the video you have a volume control slider, the playback, pause, rewind and forward buttons. On top of the video playback screen would be the screenshot icon, preferences button, also the places where you select the audio and subtitle tracks to be loaded.

The nice thing about Smplayer is that it makes it easier for those not familiar with Mplayer to choose various options and preferences via the graphical user interface. Those are things you could do on Mplayer no matter what. It’s just that for those who are not used to it, it won’t be easy to do so. So Smplayer is one way to go about it.

I think that whatever problem I am having with Smplayer could be solved but I’d have to read up a bit more first. ^^; I hope that when you check it out, you won’t have issues at all and enjoy the experience of watching videos using that.
