Comment:
> If you run smplayer and don't have mpv or mplayer installed, do you get a descriptive error message?
I guess that is up to interpretation:
```
MPlayer/mpv failed to start. Please check the MPlayer/mpv path in preferences.
```
This is a little cryptic as it tells the user it is improperly configured, possibly implying the need for a standalone version of `mpv` or `mplayer`, rather than missing a package.
