v14.9.0 (svn r6764) and mpv 0.8.2: can not play any video

In my computer mpv 0.8.2 (compiled by myself) works fine.

According to your log, mpv crashes but there isn't any error message.
Does mpv work if you run it from command line?

[goetzc]

Yes, mpv works when run from the command line.

This option controls whether the debugging messages of smplayer are printed to the console or not. But anyway the debugging messages are available in options -> view logs -> smplayer.

The problem is not in smplayer. The problem is that mpv crashes but it doesn't say why. Try to enable the "verbose" option in preferences -> advanced -> logs -> mplayer/mpv and see if it provides more info.

All I can say is that it seems the mpv process dies before it starts to play the file. I don't know why.

I saw that you're using a version of smplayer compiled with Qt 5. Does this problem still happen with smplayer compiled with Qt 4?

(SMPlayer hasn't been very much tested on Qt 5)

[goetzc]

There is no difference with Qt4, it still crashes.
But with mpv 0.7.3 it works fine. mpv 0.8.0 crashes again. I think it might be an option SMPlayer passes to mpv.

[goetzc]

The problematic option is --wid. If I start mpv from the command line with the same options SMPlayer passes, it crashes, so I removed half of them from one side, then the other till I found the problematic option, without it, mpv started from the command line, works fine.

Also, in SMPlayer, if the "Run MPlayer/mpv in its own window" option is unchecked, mpv doesn't crash.

[rvm]

Does it work if you use another output driver? (opengl, x11...)

I found a bug report about a segmentation fault when using --wid and xv:
