3This document is intented for people updating from version 0.3.0.
4I'll try to enumerate the most important changes:
5
6 * New GUI. Now there are toolbars, the control at the bottom is different
7 (and it changes if the window is made smaller), the icons can be changed
8 (several icon themes are available). In fullscreen mode the floating
9 control that appears when you move the mouse to the bottom of the screen is
10 new too and this time the video doesn't resize when it shows.
11 * Configurable key shortcuts. A shortcut editor has been added, it's
12 located at "Preferences->Mouse & keyboard". Please read
13 Configurable_shortcuts.txt.
14 * Support for VCD. Now you can also play VCD discs. (This feature doesn't
15 work on Windows, as currently MPlayer on Windows has no support for VCD yet)
16 * System tray icon. Now it's possible to leave SMPlayer running in the
17 system tray. This feature requires Qt 4.2. It works in Linux
18 (all window managers that implement the freedesktop.org system tray
19 specification, including recent versions of KDE and GNOME) and Windows.
20 It's also possible to have this feature with Qt 3, if SMPlayer is compiled
21 with KDE support. By the way...
22 * Added support for KDE 3. Optionally SMPlayer can be compiled with KDE
23 support. It will use the KDE open dialogs, and there will be an option to
24 dock the application in the system tray.
25 * Added some new functions, like pan&scan, stay on top, set the size of
26 the window...
27 * Improved support for subtitles. For instance, now you can load a idx/sub
28 file and you'll be able to select among all languages that the file
29 provides. You can have a mkv file with embedded subtitles, load an idx/sub
30 file (or srt, sub...) and all subtitles will be available.
31 * New translations. SMPlayer 0.5.0 is translated (totally or partially) to
32 the following languages:
33 Bulgarian, Czech, German, Spanish, French, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese,
34 Georgian, Dutch, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Serbian,
35 Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Simplified-Chinese and Traditional Chinese.
36 By the way, now it's possible to change the language at run-time.
