The SMPlayer Project

After watching a video in a Web site, you may want to save the video file into your local disk for playing it offline in the future. If the video file is stored in your browser's cache, this utility can help you to extract the video file from the cache and save it for watching it in the future.
It automatically scans the entire cache of Internet Explorer, Mozilla-based Web browsers (Including Firefox), Opera, and Chrome, and then finds all video files that are currently stored in it. It allows you to easily copy the cached video files into another folder for playing/watching them in the future. If you have a movie player that is configured to play flv files, it also allows you to play the video directly from your browser's cache.

I do have some experience regarding changing the extension name of a video then after that I'll play it some videos are playing but mostly they are not. I suggest to use a converter instead. :)

I want to tell you that if any the move is in any format or its not playing then change the format of the file with a software.....

thanks for all the tips! really helped. =)

I faced same problem. Lucky find this thread. It is solved now. Thank you.

WOW! My question answered. :) I have been looking around the internet for around 2 hours and this thread simply answered it all. THANKS! :lol: :lol: :lol:

My MPLAYER and SMPLAYER shows the same problem...

Mplayer Version 2:1.0~rc4~try1.dsfg1-1ubuntu1+medibuntu1
SMPLAYER Version 0.6.9-1

Also, I did a bug report on this in LAUNCHPAD ([url]https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smplayer/+bug/755896?comments=all[/url])...

I hope this be solved soon,

Thanks for posting this question. I get more more info

Oh! Thank you for the -vid 1 tip! It worked. I hope they fix it really soon.

Similar problem can be seen for mp4 HD files (for example downloaded from YouTube) on Windows. I made investigation around this and problem lies in file settings. For example I've got file which after playing save file in:

C:\Users\[user_name]\.smplayer\file_settings\c\[hex_name].ini

After trying to play again I hear only sound, but codecs are automatically selected like in first play and are correct (demux: lavfpref, video: ffh264, audio: faad). Trying to reset demux from file information window gives no result - still no video, only audio. If I delete file - again it is played correctly once, then no video. After further finding if I replaced inside ini file in section [file_settings] two values from:
[code]current_sub_id=-1000
current_program_id=-1000[/code]
to:
[code]current_sub_id=0
current_program_id=0[/code]
file is played always correctly. In SMPlayer 0.6.9 build 3590 from Sourceforge bug is still present, but this version is from 9th of November, so maybe it was fixed... I'll check in next SF release.

PS: Bug is present for ~6 months but it wasn't very annoying for me, so I didn't inform about it earlier ;) Anyway it would be nice to see this fixed ;)
