mm,when i use Open83.cmd %2
I still can't change to next video when i select more than one files.

when i use
START "" "%COMMANDER_PATH%\TOOLS\Mplayer\mplayer.exe" %*
It works when i select more than one files but i must use "%~s1",
because mplayer now not support unicode path and filename but can use 8+3 format,
or if there have method to send 8+3 format but both can select multiple files?

Modify you open8.3.cmd
Code: Select all
@ECHO OFF
CLS
set ShortArgs=
:Loop
IF [%1]==[] GOTO Continue
set ShortArgs=%ShortArgs% %~s1
SHIFT
GOTO Loop
:Continue
Echo %ShortArgs%
START "" "%COMMANDER_PATH%\TOOLS\Mplayer\mplayer.exe" %ShortArgs%

I too am having trouble with newest smplayer which can't play unicode filename in windows.
I tried to follow your guidance but due to my newbieness in IT I got lost.
Here's what I've been done:
1. installed Total Commander
2. made a new file Open83.cmd in Windows/System32, which contains a series line of code based on your tips
3. clueless in where to write "Open83.cmd %2" command
4. Opened TC - File - Internal Association- Add.. do I need to input all video type format in here?
5. Double-clicking any of unicode video file which resulting smplayer still crashed, eventhough I have checked smplayer's Preferences-Advance to "Pass short file name (8.3) to Mplayer"
Please help guide me step by step m(_ _)m
Mplayer navigation control made me hard to change to others media player
