nothing....  by default a normal user isn't allowed to use the
real-time-clock....

there's nothing wrong with that...

if you want,:
	-start mplayer as root
	-there's a way to enable rtc for a normal user, but i don't know how,
check the archives

but i've been using mplayer all the time without that rtc thing without
problems... simply ignore that line

btw. it's in the manual.
