Gnome MPlayer Subtitles

I've been working alot on the Gnome Mplayer issues with subtitles. Now I have to admit that most of what I know about subtitles and mplayer, I've learned in the last couple of weeks. I do know that a current version of mplayer is needed for proper subtitle support. So if subtitles are not working right, then get a newer version of mplayer. I've been testing with mplayer SVN (Mar 25,2008) and everything is working pretty good. You can even switch subtitles while the video is playing back.

Now code locations

Due to internet connectivity issues I had to move the SVN repos for gnome-mplayer and gecko-mediaplayer to new sites.

Gnome MPlayer: http://code.google.com/p/gnome-mplayer/

Gecko MediaPlayer: http://code.google.com/p/gecko-mediaplayer/

This completes the move of these project off of my website. RPMs are now part of Livna, so you can get them there.
