:eek:OK, man...It's finally working!
Thank you so much! You just gave greek users a big solution!:eek::D:):):)

Re: Mplayer and greek subtitles
 

You typed something wrong or u dont have mplayer installed which is in extra-testing. The code exactly is:

echo "subfont-encoding=ISO-8859-7" > /home/user/.mplayer/config

Έλληνας εννοείται:D

Re: Mplayer and greek subtitles

this way dont work for me

Re: Mplayer and greek subtitles
 

Any solution for Arabic subtitle?

Re: Mplayer and greek subtitles
 

any idea about hebrew subtitles?

Re: Mplayer and greek subtitles
 

For Arabic it should be ISO-8859-6 instead of ISO-8859-7 (try also with lowercase) and for Hebrew ISO-8859-8.

Hi ssarl

Thank you for help...

but i have tried that code ISO-8859-6 but it seems can't read in the movie , and the movie was so slow , and when i close movie , i saw the following message in xterminal

"subtitle font: prepare chrset failed.
unsupported encoding 'ISO-8859-6', use iconv --list to list
character sets know on your system.


P.S. i have also tried for hebrew , and it is the same!!
