Hi there,
1.
when using MPlayer, the subtitle color is extremely bright, like #FFFFFF,
for some video files whose picture quality are sharp, bright, clear, this
goes just fine, , like the following example:
http://img28.echo.cx/img28/4949/0016ck.jpg
but there are some video files, their picture quality are not that well, a
bit blurry or not that sharp, like the following example:
http://img28.echo.cx/img28/8725/0023tb.jpg
blurry picture with extremely white subtitle, the already a bit blurry
picture looks more unacceptable in comparison with the extremely white
subtitle, in this case, if the subtitle color could be adjusted to a less
bright one, or even a dim one, maybe it'll combine well with the a bit
blurry picture quality.
i was wondering if Subtitle Brightness Setting could be added to MPlayer, so
that when playing a kind of blurry video file, we could adjust the
brightness of the .srt subtitle on the fly to suit the a bit blurry picture
quality.

it seems MPlayer by now still does not support .rar subtitle file, if the
subtitle file is in .rar format, then MPlayer cannot read it, as a result
there is no subtitle on the screen. Compared to all other Windows media
players, they can read .rar subtitle file when playing video file, and it
seems unnecessarily tedious everytime we have to manually unarchive .rar
subtitle files before using them. so it would be great if MPlayer could
support reading .rar subtitle files, that will surely save us a lot of
unnecessary trouble.
3.
currently, MPlayer support .srt subtitle file, but seems not all the
features in .srt files are supported by MPlayer, like "Italic, color, bold,
font, font style, font size", when will MPlayer support these features in
.srt subtitle file?
one of the MPlayer developers said: <reimar> As soon as somebody writes the
support for it. Italic bold etc. should be not too difficult, colour would
need a rewrite of many parts (and come with a performance penalty, so hard
to get into CVS).
