how to force some application like SMPlayer to Access some files from SD Card?

I try x-term and root ...
cd to /mmc1/videos/

and run smplayer

but it's not worked SMPlayer can not open any file.
or how can i make "alias directory/folder" (without unmout/mount)?

Please help.

You can try:
Code:
mount --bind /directory/on/sdcard /directory/on/internal
as root.

The first path is the directory wich is 'linked' into the second path.

(That would be my linux-like way to do it)

e.g.:
Code:
mount --bind /dev/mmc1/videos /home/user/MyDocs/.videos/SDCard
The directory 'SDCard' has to exist before the mount-command.

I am having the same problem with smplayer_0.6.9-1maemo7_armel.deb

smplayer cannot access my mp3 on my SD card.
That would be a minimum requirement for a MP3 player!

?
smplayer does access all the files on my desktop.
So why should it have problems accessing a SD card on the N900?

Accessing /media/mmc1 is a minimum requirement for a media
player on the N900!
