Greetings all;
There is an .mp4 on the u-sd card that comes with the creality
ender3 pro 3d printer that I'd like to play.
Thanks & Cheers, Gene Heskett
mpv from Debian should works fine, or mplayer2 if you're still
running a mesozoic version of Debian.

stretch, mpv runs, but has only a drop a file on it to play, no menu to
go looking for a file. The usual drag copy to highlight the name, then a
MMB paste to its screen doesn't work, so how do I play it? What a
screwup this is.
... I finally made it work from the command line by enclosing the
filename in dbl-quotes. Otherwise it try's to open each word in the
windows style filename which is full of spaces.
Crazy, and it sure as tootin isn't an operating improvement, nothing
points me to mpv to play an mp4. mpv does have one, I just found it
thank you Mike, but there ought to be an alias setup that gets you mpv's
man page when you type man mp4, and get nothing. 'scuse the rant, but
I've been poking at this for days.
Thanks Mike.
Hi Gene,
SMPlayer is the usual front end to mpv. mpv as you've found is, pretty much,
just a backend engine, but right click, open with will usually work with it.
SMPlayer came with my distribution, the painful way is here:

Description-en: Complete front-end for MPlayer and mpv
Qt5 front-end for mplayer and forks, with basic features like playing
videos, DVDs, and VCDs to more advanced features like support
for MPlayer filters and more. One of the most interesting features
of SMPlayer: it remembers the settings of all files you play.
So you start to watch a movie but you have to leave... don't
worry, when you open that movie again it will resume at the same
point you left it, and with the same settings: audio track,
subtitles, volume...
