Some files don't show video after first play

It's because mplayer by default now uses the lavf demuxer for these files, instead of the older separate ones such as "mkv", "ogg", and "mov". And apparently the option that SMPlayer passes to the new demuxer is not recognised, if the settings for that file are saved.

I made new bugreport of this issue, and got patch from Reimar.

Check it out http://bugzilla.mplayerhq.hu/show_bug.cgi?id=1814 and comment there so it would be first priority to be fixed.

Built debs from yesterday's mplayer source, and the issue seems to be resolved.
