--- Comment #1 from Ronald F. Guilmette <rfg-freebsd at tristatelogic.com> ---
Just another data point on this issue.  Last night I downloaded the lastest
(19.5.0) version sources for smplayer, unpacked and built from those sources,
and I am pleased to say that I now have a correctly working smplayer on my
system.

There was only one very tiny glitch in the build proccess.  There's a
ssubdomain of the main sources tree called "webserver" and it contains a
Makefile that uses some GNU gmake specific conditional constructs which the
FreeBSD make didn't know how to deal with properly.  I wanted a quick & easy
solution so I just arranged, only for this build, to have gmake appear in my
$PATH as "make" prior to the actual FreeBSD make (/usr/bin/make) and then I was
able to both make and install the whole smplayer-19.5.0 source tree with no
problems at all.  And smplayer-19.5.0 works properly with
mplayer-1.3.0.20190329.  I know.  I checked.
