This is because the only line where that MSGTR is used, in
Gui/mplayer/gtk/menu.c, is commented out.

To the best of my knowledge from past discussion, DVD menus are not
supported in MPlayer G1, and it is uncertain whether or not they will be
supported in G2 (if that ever comes to exist). This #define, along with
its corresponding commented-out menu entry, is presumably a placeholder
against the possibility of future support.
