That's hardly a solution, because an RPM package cannot install anything
in users' home directories.
We'd have to investigate whether MPlayer also looks up a font in a
shared directory first (e.g. /usr/share/MPlayer/fonts) and if not, we'd
have to patch it to make it do so.
After some source code reading... actually, it does so, in
/usr/share/mplayer/subfont.ttf
We'll investigate and build a new release that fixes the issue.
Thanks for reporting.
cheers
