SMPlayer Support Forum

Hello developers and all,

With all respect for your hard work to improve SMPlayer I would let you know that after an upgrade from:
smplayer-0.8.6.5702-win32.exe to smplayer-0.8.6.5709-win32.exe
some setting has been altered.

General – Video – Output driver was: direct 3d, became: User defined, direct x
General – Video – Use software video equalizer was: checked, became unchecked
Interface – Interface – Autoresize was: Whenever it's needed, became: Never
Interface – Interface – Move the window when the video area is dragged was checked, became unchecked.

SMPlayer-0.8.6.5709-win32
Windows XP-home SP3 (32-bit)

This is due to a bug in Qt 5. It fails to read the settings in ini files under the [general] section. So I renamed it to [main]. Due to this change, all options in that section has been reverted to the default values.

Anyway I'll try to find a best solution for this problem.

Edit: I've just changed (r5712) the section name to [General] (upper case). Seems to work fine with Qt 5, and we don't lose any of the previous settings.
