restarted and now the player doesn't open the file! Please help!

EDIT: I deleted what i wrote in the file thanks to the link to your guide and now the file opens again.

EDIT: I did it right after reading the guide! BUt unfortunately nothing changed after a reboot. Any ideas?
No need for reboot. Just give:

Code:
echo "subfont-encoding=ISO-8859-7" > /home/user/.mplayer/config
Actually it is the same as editing the file. Greek subtitles are usually encoded as ISO-8859-7.
