Videos only shown in their own window

I installed smplayer 18.10 rev9144 from the debian 10.2 repository. When I view a video it's shown in its own window, not the main window. How do I show it in the main window?

Try a different video output (preferences -> general -> video).

It didn't work. I wasn't surprised.

Be sure the option to run mplayer in its own window, in preferences -> advanced -> mplayer is not enabled.

Major problem: the “run mplayer in its own window” box is NOT ticked.
