Smplayer is buggy

January 10, 2011 — BarryK

I will not be including Smplayer in the Wary5 repository, as it is too buggy.

I compiled version 0.6.9 back in August 2010, for an earlier version of Wary, and found issues with it then.

Trying again today, I compiled for Wary 5.0, and there is a show-stopper bug. Yeah, it worked at first, but it writes something wrong into its /root/.config/smplayer directory and subsequent plays will not show any video only audio. I could not figure out what it is doing, had to delete the entire /root/.config/smplayer directory to get video back.
