Special care have been taken with subtitles. SMPlayer uses the award-winning MPlayer as engine, so it’s able to play the most known audio & video formats without any need of external codecs: avi, mkv, ogm, mpeg, vob, 3gp, asf, mov, wmv, mp3, ogg… You can also play DVD discs and Internet streams. All of this is tucked inside an intuitive layout with easy-to-use buttons and menus. It doesn’t hurt that audio and video quality are gorgeous. There are caption tools, a screenshot button, and other features that make watching videos really enjoyable. That’s fine, because it has all sorts of goodies in terms of playback support. Sadly, the app doesn’t support many playlist features other than a “favorite” button, so it’s really only useful as a video player. All of your music and movies will fit right into SMPlayer’s smooth layout. You’ll be rewarded for your patience with a program that can play just about any file. Once you’ve gotten it installed, it has to load some fonts and other goodies, which takes another minute or two. The app’s installation will try to swap your home page and search through Bing if you’re not careful, too. Setup isn’t the easiest thing in the world, but the robust download is worth the time you have to put into it.Īs you might expect, this is a bigger download that will take a minute or two on slower connections. It has a sleek menu that’s loaded with features and some really cool playback options.
