This port provides a simple and easy to use tool to provide fonts in OSD. Just cd to the ports directory and type make install-user Note: This is only for the bitmap fonts! If you've compiled mplayer with truetype support, this won't work. Please take a look at docs in /usr/local/share/doc/mplayer If you encounter strange problems, please have a look at http://www.rrr.de/~riggs/mplayer/faq_en.html before throwing stones at me :-)
