Think you either posted the wrong picture or I am confused. Why are you asking about SMplayer in the gnome-mplayer bug tracker? If this really is an mplayer issue you need to open a ticket with them.. http://mplayerhq.hu

Sounds like an mplayer issue then, please contact them to correct this.

Closed as done as this is an mplayer issue.

BTW, did you enable Advanced Subtitles in Edit ->Preferences under [subtitles]

and then pick the font you wanted.. Also under Subtitle font Encoding did you pick windows-1255?

yes everything is enable it seem to be that the problem is that i updated mplayer to the latest svn version and that version don't have hebrew windows-1255 why i don't know but i didn't have a problem with the official version of mplayer the problem is to restore it now or to try to find other solution via config in .mplayer or a way to remove the binaries of the new svn and reinstall the official version and etc.

Just reinstall the package or recompile SVN with freetype support... doesn't sound like a problem with the program just with your setup.

i tried to reinstall the official package and even remove it and all the associated programs and reinstall it but it didn't work when i type mplayer in terminal i still have SVN-r31042-4.4.3.

how can i fix it now via freetype support or just remove SVN-r31042-4.4.3. and reinstall the original package?

do a 'which mplayer' that will tell you where it is, and then you can remove it from there...

Well this is local problem to your machine... and so it will be up to you to correct it... but it does look like you are running your system package now...

@aviramof this connection fauilures are becouse of bluez-alsa. Please remove this package from your system or configure it properly to get rid of that ugly lines.

Just to let you know at the moment i no longer use ubuntu 10.04 at all it's just too bugy for me i hope that versions 10.04.1 in july would be better and also that by that time the main reposetiries would be fully updated with a new mplayer version that would not have this problem but thanks for the info i would remember it and i would check it once i reinstall ubuntu 10.04 but my hope is that the pacagage bluez- alsa would not be there by default or would work better then it did in the past.:)
