SM Player doesn't play

[Mr Problem]

SM player doesn't play some of my mkv files. When I check the logs it says "file not found". With VLC player the files play without a problem. I already downloaded the most recent version of SM Player, but that didn't help. What could be wrong?

Whadda ya know?

I noticed in the log that the folder the files were in was called "Season?" . But the actual name of the folder was Season I (with a Roman 1). When I changed the names from Season I and II to Season 1 and 2 they suddenly played!

Strange..................

I have the same problem. First tried the full 32 bit version and put a DVD in the drawer. I clicked on the obvious things first, like play DVD ......nada / zip. I uninstalled that version and tried the older stable version. Same results. Definitely not a plug and play program. Trying to run this in Windows XP professional (SP3). This isn't anything like Audacity (just for audio). Audacity really works. I think having a program that works without a lot of fooling around is a good start. Some people just don't have the time.

OMG ...... The preview feature on this forum doesn't even work ! C'mon, what's going on here ?

To play a DVD you have to go first to preferences and select your DVD drive.

Anyway smplayer is not very good to play DVDs. It works better with other kind of media.
