14 You need an mplayer font package to be able to use OSD/SUB feature.
|
|
15 There are many ways to get it:
|
|
16
|
|
17 1. use the font generator tool at TOOLS/subfont-c
|
|
18 It's a complete tool to convert from TTF/Type1/etc font to mplayer font pkg.
|
|
19 (read TOOLS/subfont-c/README for details)

|
|
25 Note: currently available fonts are only for limited iso 8859-1/2 support,
|
|
26 and there is a few special version for korean, russian etc codepages.
|

|
|
39 - clock + volume bar + seek bar + sub (default)
|
