SMPlayer is a free media player for Windows, Linux and MacOS with built-in codecs that can play virtually all video and audio formats. It doesn't need any external codecs. Just install SMPlayer and you'll be able to play all formats without the hassle to find and install codec packs. One of the most interesting features of SMPlayer: it remembers the settings of all files you play. So you start to watch a movie but you have to leave... don't worry, when you open that movie again it will be resumed at the same point you left it, and with the same settings: audio track, subtitles, volume...

Wow! thanks for this awesome player! Installed it a few days ago and the more I use it, the better I like it. I was using Zoom Player, not any more, I completely removed it! Now this is the ONLY player I'm using, using it on Windows 10 64bit Pro Edition... Super Big THANKS for all your efforts and time in sharing this wonderful player... Again Thanks!!!

It is the best Linux-Media-Player, so it gets full overall score.
Konfiguration ist mostly well prebuild and easy to adapt on your personal whishes.
Only the playlist is the matter. Nice, that it can append usefully on the side, but only using clicks or permanenty. A smooth fly-bye playlist would be nice.
Very nice media player, but it could use a little more effort from developers.

For new users, November 2019 - while mpv is a great cross platform video and audio player, probably the most advanced for functionality, with great video scalers and a steep learning curve, SMPlayer is a bad tentative to give a GUI to this gem. But the results are not very good; I tried a lot of times this player but there are always a lot of small and big bugs that are not absolutely present in the original MPV player. And after some days, I'm always forced to uninstall it. I'm not the first person to not apprecciate SMPlayer, sorry.
