Symptoms: After updating Mplayer to version 1.0.20060415, every time a non-subtitled video is opened, the error message: "Failed to open /home/<user>/.mplayer/default.sub" is displayed. It also appears that mplayerplug-in does not handle this error well, causing any playback using mplayerplug-in to fail. Upon pressing play, the window merely flickers, and then returns to the grey background. It should be noted that mplayerplug-in does NOT display this error anywhere, causing troubleshooting to be non-obvious. Reproducible: Always. I have both an amd64 and an x86 version of Gentoo installed on the same machine, and this bug affects both versions identically. Workaround: Creating an empty "default.sub"-file in the required directory, for instance with the command: touch ~/.mplayer/default.sub emerge --info: Portage 2.0.54 (default-linux/amd64/2005.0, gcc-3.4.5, glibc-2.3.6-r3, 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5, 2.4.2 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=k8 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo ftp://ftp.linux.ee/pub/gentoo/distfiles http://distfiles.gentoo.org" LC_ALL="sv_FI" LINGUAS="sv" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X aac aalib acl alsa amd64 arts audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts browserplugin bzip2 cddb cdparanoia cdr cli crypt cups curl dri dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss emul-linux-x86 encode esd exif expat fam ffmpeg firefox flac foomaticdb gd ggi gif glut gmp gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 idn imagemagick imlib isdnlog jack java jpeg kde lcms ldap libcaca libedit libwww lzo lzw lzw-tiff mad matroska mcal mhash mikmod ming mng motif mozilla mp3 mpeg nas ncurses nls nodrm nptl nvidia ogg opengl pcre pdflib perl png pppd python qt quicktime readline reflection samba sdl session snmp spell spl ssl tcltk tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode usb userlocales vorbis xine xml2 xmms xorg xpm xv xvid zlib linguas_sv userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LDFLAGS
