After upgrading mplayer today to the latest version I started getting HUGE subtitles in my movies played using smplayer.

It's always that I find a solution right after posting... Rebuilding libass (cool name for a library btw) with USE=enca fixed the problem. Maybe mplayer with USE=ass should depend libass built with this flag? Or maybe It's a smplayer bug?
Which smplayer?
media-video/smplayer-0.6.9
probably fixed by fixing bug #321863 ; please reopen if i'm wrong
