I use smplayer as default player on ubuntu 15.04, which is provided by mplayer2 now. It takes mplayer2 more than 3 secs to forward a video, which is unacceptable. On ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 LTS, smplayer is provided by mplayer, NOT mplayer2. It works nicely.

Just for forwarding latency go to SMPlayer:
Preferences/Interface/Seeking/ Precise seeking and check this option off.

Though notice this option affects only mplayer2 and mpv also but it's useless for mplayer.– JoKeRJul 8, 2015 at 8:58
SMPlayer can be used with mplayer
, mplayer2
and mpv
you can manually set it to whatever you like, sometimes I do set it myself to mpv
for example. Simply replace the default like on the screenshot:
To use mpv
which is recommended by SMPlayer simply type mpv
instead of mplayer
.
If you don't have mpv
installed you can add this ppa with the latest updates for Vivid:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/ffmpeg-test1
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mpv
