What is SMPlayer?

SMPlayer is a free, open-source media player for watching videos and listening to audio without separately finding codec packs for common formats. The publisher lists AVI, MP4, MKV, MPEG and MOV among its supported formats. It can remember a file's playback position and settings, including the selected audio track, subtitles and volume, so you can continue a viewing session later.

Playback controls include speed adjustment, audio and subtitle delay, filters and an equalizer. Skins and icon themes change the interface, while the preferences let you adapt how the player behaves. The Windows installer offers a choice of MPlayer or mpv as the playback engine.

The linked package is the publisher-listed SMPlayer 26.8.29 alternative installer for Windows XP and other 32-bit systems; its filename explicitly identifies it as unsigned. It is not the separate 64-bit package for Windows 8 and above. Broad format support does not guarantee playback of protected media: Softonic's review specifically reports incomplete playback of DRM-protected WMV files. The screenshot is the publisher's historical Windows interface illustration, not a capture of version 26.8.29 running in this session.

What it offers

  • Play common video and audio formats with built-in codecs, including AVI, MP4, MKV, MPEG and MOV.
  • Resume a file at its saved playback position with its remembered audio track, subtitles and volume.
  • Adjust playback speed, audio delay and subtitle delay; apply video and audio filters.
  • Change the interface with skins and icon themes.
  • Choose MPlayer or mpv components through the Windows installer.

Good to know

  • This download is the unsigned 32-bit installer, not the publisher's separate 64-bit Windows 8-and-above package.
  • DRM-protected media is not guaranteed to play; Softonic's review reports incomplete playback of protected WMV files.
