Hi

Does anybody know how to run unicode(Chinese/Japanese/Korean & etc) subtitle on MPlayer?
I could see English sub., but unicode sub-titles is cracked.
I think this is about encoding matter, as a newbie.
Anybody can solve this please?

**I can see all the text exactly in web browser by copying fonts to ~/.fonts/

mplayer is probably using the wrong font for subtitles, and that's why the characters are not showing up?

In your mplayer config directory (that's /home/user/.mplayer), you can put a file called 'subfont.ttf', which mplayer will use for displaying subtitles.

Instead of copying a file, you can do a softlink with 'ln -s [path to font file] /home/user/.mplayer/subfont.ttf'

A bit OT, but could you please tell me which fonts you copied to your n800 to enable Korean fonts? I've tried a couple, but I haven't had any success so far.

Hi

Have you succeeded in playing unicode fonts on Mplayer?
I did it what you told me, but I still cannot see correctly.

**I put any fonts into ~/.fonts/, any fonts I tried, it works perfectly.
