It's still under development, but it will be merged and released real soon.

+<P><B><A NAME=1.5>1.5. Subtitles and OSD</A></B></P>
+
+<P>Yes, <B>MPlayer</B> also supports many kinds of subtitles. Currently
+7 kinds of subtitle can be used by the subreader code. To see what are
+these subtitle formats, see subreader.c, line ~20.</P>
+
+<P>Subtitles are displayed with a technique called <B>'OSD', On Screen Display</B>.
+OSD is used to display current time, volume bar, seek bar etc.</P>
+
+<P><B>INSTALLING OSD and SUB</B></P>
+
+<P>You need an <B>MPlayer</B> font package to be able to use OSD/SUB feature.
+There are many ways to get it:
+<UL>
+
+<LI>use the font generator tool at TOOLS/subfont-c
+It's a complete tool to convert from TTF/Type1/etc font to mplayer font pkg.
+(read TOOLS/subfont-c/README for details)
+
+<LI>use the font generator GIMP plugin at TOOLS/subfont-GIMP
+(note: you must have HSI RAW plugin too, see URL below)
+
+<LI>download ready-to-use font packages from <B>MPlayer</B> site.
+Note: currently available fonts are limited for iso 8859-1/2 support,
+and there are a few special versions for korean, russian etc codepages.
+You better build fonts yourself with the tool mentioned above.
+Font should have appropriate font.desc file which maps unicode font
+positions to the actual code page of the subtitles text. Other solution
+is to have subtitles encoded in utf8 encoding and use -utf8 option
+or just name the subtitles file <video_name>.utf and have it in the same
+dir as the video file. Recoding from different codepages to utf8 could be
+done by using konwert (debian) or iconv (RedHat) programs.<BR>
