SMPLayer (Benutzeroberfläche für den MPlayer) in Version 0.6.8 für Linux/Windows XP/2000/NT released

Neuerungen laut Changelog:
* Check for new channels first in ~/.mplayer/channels.conf.ter. Use channels.conf if channels.conf.ter is not found.
* Removed the “Jump…” item from the tv and radio menus. The actions are still available.
* (Playlist) Fix: don’t try to a load pls file if the file doesn’t exist. Prevents QSettings to create subdirectories pointing to that file.
* Updated the texts of the OSD options.
* Moved the option “Visualize motion vectors” from menu Options to menu Video.
* Fixed error “302 – Moved temporarily” when connecting to opensubtitles.org.
* Added the new option “Jump” to the TV and radio menus. It displays a dialog which allows the user to enter the number of the channel to open.
* Applied patch numbered_recent_files.diff by greenest. It adds numbers in front of the recent files, and a key accelerator.
* Save the last TV channel, which will be used when “dvb://” or “tv://” is opened.
* (Linux) vdpau doesn’t allow to use any video filter (mplayer would crash) so now smplayer will clear the filter list if vdpau is used.
* New option for smplayer.ini (section [playlist]): automatically_play_next. If set to false the playlist won’t play the next item when the current one finishes.
* The settings of TV channels are saved on ~/.config/smplayer/smplayer_tv.ini.
* Added a new section in the preferences dialog: TV and radio.
* Apply patch play_action_disabled_while_playing.diff by Francesco Cosoleto. It disables the play action while playing.
* (Fix) Now the command line option -sub passes the subtitle file to another running instance.
* Added actions to select the previous and next tv channels, and also for previous and next radio. Assigned by default to the keys L and H (for TV) and Shift+L and Shift+H for radio.
* Changing chapters works again with mplayer > svn r29407 (0-based). For DVDs, it only works if cache = 0.
* Added two options for smplayer.ini (section [tv]): check_channels_conf_on_startup and initial_tv_deinterlace.
* The tv and radio submenus can be added to the toolbars (tv_menu and radio_menu).
* New menus Open->TV and Open->Radio. The items for those menus are taken from ~/.mplayer/channels.conf. The services with video and audio pid are added to the TV menu, those with audio pid are added to the radio menu. The rest are discarded. The file channels.conf is rescanned on every startup and will add new channels to the menus. Note: the file channels.conf is not read at all on Windows (mplayer lacks dvb support on Windows).
* The list of channels can be edited.
* Initial support for TV (dvb:// and tv://):
– You can open dvb channels through commandline (smplayer dvb://CHANNEL_NAME). It may also work with tv:// but it’s untested.
– There’s an option under Preferences->Performance to set the cache for TV.
– The view info and properties dialog recognizes dvb:// and tv:// and display a TV icon for them.
* Added the new menu Program under the Browse menu. It allows to change the program track for ts files. Known issue: when a program changes, the video and audio track will probably change too but the video and audio menus doesn’t show that change.
* The OSD is not shown until 3 seconds after the video started to play. This avoid a lot of messages being printed on the OSD at startup.
* Applied (with a few changes) the patch wheelfunctionpatch4.txt by Stivo. It adds the possibility to change the function of the mouse wheel with a mouse click.
* (Windows) smplayer should recognize now Windows 7, if using Qt 4.5.1 (untested).
* (Windows, portable version) The default screenshot directory is ./screenshots, and the default additional option for mplayer is -nofontconfig. This way it’s not necessary to supply a customized smplayer.ini in the portable package.
* Recognize the multithreaded mplayer build from kovensky (checks for ‘MPlayer GIT*’). It assumes it’s version 1.0rc3.
* Bugfix: now the color tags from the mplayer output are really removed (linux only).
* Two new options for the command line have been added: -pos and -size. Both options expect two arguments. -pos specifies the coordinates (x, y) where the main window will be displayed, -size specifies the size (width, height). If any of the values is invalid, the option will be silently ignored.
* New option in the subtitle menu: “subtitle visibility”. If the option is checked (default) subtitles are visible, otherwise the subtitles won’t appear in the screen. This is a global option.
* In the subtitle initialization function, try to find the external subtitle using its filename, and not assuming that it’s always the last one. It should make the -sub command line option to work as expected.
* Added the Estonian translation, by olav mägi.
* The option “Audio/video auto synchronization” has been moved from Preferences -> Performance to Preferences -> General -> Audio.
* Added the new option “A-V sync correction” in Preferences -> General -> Audio (for the mplayer option -mc).
* New option for smplayer.ini: row_spacing (in the [playlist] section). It specifies the spacing between rows in the playlist. If the value is -1 the row height is not changed.
* Added an option in Preferences -> Advanced -> Logs to make the mplayer logs
more verbose (passes -v to mplayer).
* Applied patch coreavc.patch by Shurygin Egor. It adds a checkbox in performance settings to switch coreavc usage. When checked passes to mplayer “-vc coreavc,” unless vdpau video driver is used and any other video codec has been set explicitly.
* Bugfix: hide the mouse cursor when it’s over the black borders.
* (Windows) New options for smplayer.ini: turn_screensaver_off (false by default) and avoid_screensaver (true by default). The option disable_screensaver won’t be used on windows anymore. turn_screensaver_off disables the screensaver from the control panel, while avoid_screensaver prevents the screensaver to appear when windows requests for it in an event.
* Added checkboxes in preferences->general->video to allow to configure the avoid_screensaver and turn_screensaver_off options.
* Deleted the option “Change volume just before playing” (Preferences -> General -> Audio). That option had sense when a patch was required for the -volume option, but not now. Now it will just use -volume if using mplayer >= SVN r27872.
* Deleted the option “Change volume on every file” (Preferences -> General -> Audio). It did more or less the same now it does the “Global volume” option.
* Deleted the “Default volume” slider in (Preferences -> General -> Audio). With time it lost its original meaning. It’s still possible to configure the default volume in smplayer.ini.
* Started to implement the possibility to customize the options for the audio/video filters passed to mplayer (in the section [filter_options] in smplayer.ini). Currently 3 filters can be customized: noise, volnorm and deblock. BTW, the volnorm filter has changed its default value from 2 to 1.
* (Experimental) Added the new option “Global volume” (Preferences -> General-> Audio). If the option is checked, the volume and mute are global options. If not checked, the volume and mute options are independent for each file. Known issues: the default value is 50, it doesn’t honor the “default volume” setting. On the other hand, the option “change volume before playing” is honored even if that option is shown disabled when the “global volume” is checked.
* Added the Vietnamese translation, by Lê Xuân Thảo.
* Display the current playback speed in the status bar when it changes.
* Added support for the mplayer tags DVDNAV_TITLE_IS_MENU and DVDNAV_TITLE_IS_MOVIE added in mplayer svn r29156. It just simply stops sending the set_mouse_pos slave command if not in a dvd menu.
* (Bugfix) Don’t stop the file if already stopped when closing smplayer to prevent that the current position would reset to 0.
* Added two aspect ratios: 3:2 and 14:10.
* The next_aspect action changes the aspect ratio in the right order.
* Added an option in preferences to turn on/off the screenshot feature. So no need now to clear the screenshot path to disable it.
* Pass to mplayer “-vc ffh264vdpau,ffmpeg12vdpau,ffwmv3vdpau,ffvc1vdpau,” if using vdpau as video driver and not other video codec has been set. (Untested)
* Now the mouse cursor is hidden only when playing.
* (Fix) The preferences dialog sets the default video driver to “direct3d,” if using Windows Vista.
* Added ogv to the list of extensions (for video).
* (Linux) Using -input nodefault-bindings:conf=/dev/null to disable the
mplayer keys if using mplayer >= SVN r29058.
* (Experimental) Now some of the submenus can be added to the toolbars
(actions names: speed_menu, videotrack_menu, screen_menu, videosize_menu,
panscan_menu, aspect_menu, deinterlace_menu, videofilter_menu, rotate_menu,
ontop_menu, audiotrack_menu, audiofilter_menu, audiochannels_menu,
stereomode_menu, subtitlestrack_menu, titles_menu, chapters_menu,
angles_menu, osd_menu).
* Added an icon for the next_aspect action. Contributed by TT
* The subtitle and audio delay actions keep now the file paused. They also
display the current value in the status bar.
* Added some icons for: Help -> Tips, Video -> Preview, Video -> Start/stop
taking screenshots, Subtitles -> Find subtitles on opensubtitles.org and
updated the Qt logo (taken from the Qt sources).
* (Videopreview) Ctrl+H toggles displaying the info about the video.
* Don’t use “set_property switch_video” when using the nsv demuxer. It makes
mplayer stop displaying the video after a few seconds.
* Added a new option: Video -> Start/stop taking screenshots (of each frame)
assigned by default to “Shift+D” (the icon for this action: screenshots.png)
When this option is selected, a screenshot will be taken (and saved in
png format to the screenshot folder) for each frame. Select the option
again to stop taking screenshots.
* (Windows) Now by default the combos in Preferences -> Drives will show all
drives, not only CD/DVD devices, as it has been reported that checking
for those devices can be slow if there are network drives. Now there’s
a button “Scan for CD/DVD devices” to force the detection of CD/DVD devices.
* Deleted the obsolete translations from smplayer_gl.ts (caused lrelease

* Fixed some build problems that could make the installation fail, trying to
recompile everything again with qt3 because QMAKE can be undefined during
make install.
