MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for kmplayer [2]:

Broken media player, last released in 2016.
Since that time, its Gitlab repo sees virtually only automated
translation bump commits and mass deprecation adjustment commits and
CI disablement commits.

Officially it only supports xv (X Video Extension) and x11 video
drivers, nothing else.

It was dropped from repo in 2022, and it has only 1 vote on AUR.

It is also broken, just like its unmaintained dependency,
kmediaplayer.
The latter is discontinued for KF6, so kmplayer also does not have a
welcome place on the upcoming KDE Plasma 6 (ETA: Q1 2024).

I recommend deletion: it is hardly uniquely useful, there are many
alternatives that are much better.
