How do I set up EDL?

smplayer has support for edl files. Just name it with the same filename of the movie but with extension .edl, and smplayer will load it automatically.

I've just tested it and it works.

I tried just creating an EDL file through notepad, and renaming the extension EDL.

I just copy and pasted

5.3 7.1 0
15 16.7 1
420 422 0

into the notepad to see if it would work. However, once it reached the 5.3 mark is just fastforwarded to the end of the movie.

I left Run the following actions every time a file is opened. BLANK and even uninstalled it, but it still does the same thing.

I don't know, I didn't test on windows. Maybe it's a bug of that mplayer build.

yeah for me I get this (jumps through the DVD like skipping through it quickly) when using an edl with smplayer + mplayer

MPlayer Sherpya-SVN-r30369-4.2.5

but not with

MPlayer Sherpya-SVN-r32492-4.2.5 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team (from http://oss.netfarm.it/mplayer-win32.php )

You can get an smplayer with the updated version of mplayer (that works for EDL) from Lord Mulder's "mplayer for windows" download, which contains a much more updated version of mplayer.exe

Also if you have filename.mpg you'll want to name the edl file filename.edl, not filename.mpg.edl
