Package: smplayer
Version: 16.11.0~ds0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

after the update to Debian Stretch, which makes smplayer using mpv instead 
of mplayer, the smplayer does not work anymore.

Any file I try to open, smplayer crashes with "Error parsing option noquiet 
(option not found)". The problems seems to be, that mpv doesn’t have the 
same options that mplayer had, but smplayer does not respect this.

AFAIS you were told in #783401 that this would happen, but somehow this 
was ignored.

Could this please be fixed or reverted back? Currently smplayer is pretty 
useless in Debian.

Sincerely,
DaB.
