There's no doubt that this is a high-quality media player if you look at the features list. On Windows 7 it works like a charm, so I bet that on Linux is the same. Right after the first launch of the program, I noticed the low resource usage of my laptop. I tested SMPlayer on all latest Windows versions 7, 8, 8.1, 10 and the entire installation required just a couple of seconds. alaw/ulaw, (ms)gsm, pcm, *adpcm, and other simple old audio formats SMPlayer Review VIVO audio (g723, Vivo Siren) (using x86 DLL) QuickTime: Qclp, Q-Design QDMC/QDM2, MACE 3/6 (using QT libraries), ALAC RealAudio: COOK, SIPRO, ATRAC3 (using Real libraries) AC3/A52, E-AC3, DTS (Dolby Digital) audio (software or SP/DIF) Supported audio codecs (only the most important are listed) MJPEG, AVID, VCR2, ASV2 and other hardware formats Intel Indeo 4.1 and 5.0 (using x86 DLL or XAnim codecs)

There is an extensive list of features, and the number is going up with each new release. With this player, you don't need any additional external codecs. SMPlayer is a free, open source media player that uses the playback engine of MPlayer.
