Package: smplayer
Version: 0.6.9-4
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/smplayer

Dear Maintainer,

after "mplayer" packet update from 1.0~rc4.dfsg1-2 to 1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn33713-2 , "smplayer" menus and buttons
does not work anymore. "smplayer" buttons (start/stop/arrows) are grey.

Moreover, this is not possible to use keyboard keys (arrows) in order to move inside video.

This is not possible to shutdown "smpalyer" by using the top-right "cross". Only way to shutdown it is to use:
	killall -9 smplayer ; sleep 1s; killall -9 mplayer

The only way to fix this issue is to downgrade "mplayer", from 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn33713-2 to 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1-2,
by using manual .deb download and install:
	dpkg -i mplayer_1.0~rc4.dfsg1-2_i386.deb
After "mplayer" downgrade, "smplayer" working fine.
