Not a fix but give MPV a try it seems a little nicer

especially if you are on an older distro like Jessie.
Second that.
I use both mplayer and mpv under SMPlayer. Open 'Preferences' to switch
the 'Multimedia engine.'
Overkill but I copy/pasted the 3 aptitude show's below.
Do note SMPlayer phones home for self update info, which you can disable by
following:
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1188099&s=73e8a8809da60f5e496…
and modifying the '/usr/bin/ni' script to:
michael@local [~]# cat /usr/bin/no-internet
#!/bin/bash
COMMAND="$1"
shift
for arg; do
COMMAND="$COMMAND \"$arg\""
done
sg no-internet "$COMMAND"
Then changing the SMPlayer menu entry to:
no-internet smplayer %U
* I changed 'ni' to 'no-internet' so I'd know what it was later,
everything
else came from the Internet...
Best,
Michael

Description: A great media player
SMPlayer is a graphical user interface (GUI) for the award-winning mplayer
and also for mpv. But apart from providing access
for the most common and useful options of mplayer and mpv, SMPlayer adds
other interesting features like the possibility to
play Youtube videos or search and download subtitles. One of the main
features is the ability to remember the state of a
played file, so when you play it later it will be resumed at the same point
and with the same settings.

files, supported by many native, XAnim, RealPlayer, and Win32 DLL codecs. It
