    Hi, I would like to know, if is possible to change font in MPlayer.

    It is very important, because titles in czech have many different characters that arent displayed during the film. MPlayer default font cant show these characters, so I would like to change font.

    Thank you.

    I suggest you wait for someone to port the latest MPlayer (CVS or a 1.0-prerelease) to MorphOS. It supports freetype so first of all the fonts look waaay better and second you can use truetype fonts which usually come with support for many character-sets. It also supports fribidi which means that languages such as hebrew are supported. MPlayer 0.91 is really really old.
    The latest MPlayer version also has support for SVQ3 (Sorenson) which means that you can watch most quicktime movies as well :).

    Yes it's possible !
    You can download font from the MPlayer offcial web site.
    www.mplayerhq.hu.

    By the way, MPlayer 0.91 for MorphOS supports Sorenson V3 codec.

    bye
    MorphOS Rulez !

    Hmm, ok cool. I guess they used a newer libavcodec when they compiled it then. I still wish someone would port a recent CVS snapshot though as there are some nice features such as truetype fonts.
