SMPlayer Support Forum

Hey there!

I'm running the player on Linux/KDE.

I recently upgraded from version 15.11.0 to 18.10.0.9144.

In the old version I was able to customize the theme by changing the colors via /home/.config/smplayerrc. And the buttons via modified png's in /usr/share/smplayer/themes/Faenza-Darkest/ for example.

The new version seems to not read these files anymore. Is that true?

What would be the new way to achieve the old results?

BTW: Clicking "Open configuration folder" under "Help" crashes the player.


Best greetings from cold Germany!

I think smplayer doesn't use a file named smplayerrc.

I think it would be better if you give your theme a different name, for example Faenza-Darkest-mod. Then select that theme in preferences -> interface.
