Thanx. Building it now using the spec file contained in the tarball.

eg, if i have vlc working fine, what does smplayer additionally offer?
i miss mplayer so i am interested to see, after moving to a current fedora, what are the remaining players standing,...

I may be wrong, but I think the two use different sets of codec libraries. I've certainly come across cases where one will play files that the other will not.
And VLC seems more computationally intensive, to me (takes longer to load up the program, and start dealing with files).

BINGO!!! This is especially true if you compare running vlc and smplayer on windoze.

mpv seems pretty good (it's based on mplayer so may in some sense be a replacement for smplayer).

I use xine and it serves my purpose. (I prefer the simpler keybindings.)
Of course, I have not used mencoder for years (so that is what I may be missing) and that would need mplayer.

Hmmm. I thought smplayer is the gui front end for mplayer and mpv. mpv does not seem to have a gui front end.

Smplayer is *a* GUI front-end. Mpv is independent (I don't even have smplayer installed).

smplayer allows the user to choose mplayer or mpv for playing the media.

Now I see what you mean. Unlike mplayer, mpv does have in-app GUI controls for playback so I call it a GUI, but indeed it doesn't have a full set (e.g. for loading files).

The choice of music and the choice of the devices used to play it is one's personal A-rational choice.
If you do not know the meaning of arational, look it up :)
