I think the best image quality is provided by the opengl video driver (using mpv as multimedia engine).

The option "auto" selects the best hardware decoder, so I think that's the best option to use.

There is a issue with the translation:


Decoding: Decryption

Hardware Decoding: Device Decryption


correct would be:

Decoding: Dekodierung

Hardware Decoding: Hardware Dekodierung


Maybe SMPlayer uses some automatic translation software. I found out with the help of google and a posting here I can change the language to english via ini file, usually I prefer english.

Edit: I was referring to the German Translation.
