The subtitles should be displayed on the TV screen. Now connect to Chromecast and start playback as usual.

Select the option Play on Chromecast from the Play menu.

Play the video in SMPlayer and select the vtt subtitle from the menu Subtitles -> Primary track.

Store the vtt file in the same folder of the video. Or just use any other tool you may find on the Internet. You can convert subtitles in srt format to the vtt format here.

First you need to convert the subtitles to vtt.

The subtitles must be in the same folder of the video.

However currently there are some limitations: Now SMPlayer 17.3 has just added the possibility to display subtitles on Chromecast (still an experimental feature). It does not have to compete with full-fledged non-linear video editors like Kdenlive or Openshot, but I should be able to (say) increase the brightness of a video, perform basic cropping etc and save the output to disk with reasonable quality with an intuitive, mouse-driven interface.Īre any of these items being considered at all? Once again, thanks for your work to date.SMPlayer 17.1 added support for Chromecast.

Ideally an interface that resembles modern video websites.ģ) Support for some basic video editing. Tagging, integrated searching, thumbnail management, ability to hover over a thumbnail and see video summaries etc are critically important when you are dealing with hundreds of videos.

I know this is possible because ExMplayer has had that feature for multiple years.Ģ) No need to compete with Kodi or anything, but I would like support some basic `media manager’ features. Not sure if this is the right place, but thought I’d leave a list of wishlist items for the future:ġ) The ability to hold the mouse over the slider bar and see the frame corresponding to that position. SMPlayer has become by GoTo for the past few years.
