SMPlayer, alternative Linux à KMPlayer
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
SMPlayer is a strong replacement for KMPlayer users who want a lightweight, ad-free experience without installing codec packs. It handles the same core job: playing diverse video and audio formats with built-in support. While KMPlayer is known for its specific interface and Windows integration, SMPlayer offers a clean, open-source alternative that remembers playback positions and supports subtitles. It is ideal for users migrating from Windows who prioritize stability and format compatibility over proprietary features. You lose some Windows-specific integrations, but gain a player that works consistently across Linux distributions without bloat or ads.

Ouvrir vos fichiers KMPlayer
SMPlayer opens the same media file formats (AVI, MKV, MP4, etc.) as KMPlayer. There is no specific 'KMPlayer file' format to migrate; you simply point SMPlayer at your existing video files. Playlist files created in KMPlayer may need manual conversion if they use a proprietary format, but standard M3U or PLS playlists are generally supported. Subtitle files (SRT, ASS) are fully compatible.

- Install SMPlayer via your distribution's package manager or Flathub
- Copy your video and subtitle files to your Linux system
