On my machine:
$ rpm -q mpv smplayer
mpv-0.3.11-1.fc20.x86_64
smplayer-14.9.0-1.fc20.x86_64
So, my mpv is 6 revisions behind.
I tried to build your version from sources,
but it requires package dependencies I am not able
to resolve.
My smplayer --version says:
$ smplayer --version

I tried to build version 0.9...... etc from fc22 (after first running
yum-builddep on the source
which succceeded.
Here is that failure to build message:
.
.
.
Checking for SSA/ASS
support : no ('libass >=
0.12.1' not found)
Unable to find development files for libass, or the version found is too
old. Aborting. If you really mean to compile without libass support use
--disable-libass.
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.oKTg2B (%build)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.oKTg2B (%build)
I can edit the spec file to disable libass, but I am not certain
what functionality will be crippled.
