Experimenting a bit...

First, the high DPI did not seem to do anything, merely by clicking the "Enable 
Support..."
box, and leaving the "Scale->Auto" box checked.

I noted under Interface->Style there was a GTK+ option, and things looked a bit 
bigger and better than when Fusion (default) was in effect - the menu items 
were somewhat larger, also.
Strangly, when I switched back to Fusion to clarify the difference(s), the size 
remained the same.
Also, when re-started SMPlayer after selecting GTK+, the menubar was back to 
being miniscule.

I noted that Default Font was blank.  Also that when I clicked on Change, the 
selected font displayed was Ubuntu Medium 14 (although it had selected Medium 
Italic, for some reason...
I modified it to just Medium.
Nothing changed on the menubar until I restarted SMPlayer.  The menu font was 
larger.  Not as large as I would like, but that is obviously changeable.
I went back to HighDPI, unchecked Scale->Auto, and put the slider all the way 
to the right ("4").  After restart, everything was HUGE, except for the font 
size, which had not changed at all...(!)  Why would the font not also scale up? 
 I put it back to Scale->Auto.

I don't know why the font selector for SMPlayer knows what the system font/size 
is (except it is not italic), yet it does not default to that font 
automatically, and leaves the font box blank.  Whether this is a bug or 
intentionally odd, I don't know, but in my humble opinion,
SMPlayer ought to default to the system font/size, and place that info in the 
(currently blank) Default Font box in the Interface section of the Preferences.
