Details

Steps to reproduce:

Install mplayer using pacman.
Play media file using mplayer.
Press the 'o' key to turn on the OSD.
Note that OSD is mostly missing (just an arrow).

Steps to resolve:

Install ttf-bitstream-vera using pacman (supplies Vera.ttf, which /usr/share/mplayer/subfont.ttf points to).

I assume this is a problem on x86_64 as well, but I haven't checked.
This task depends upon

I can confirm this issue and solution - mplayer dependencies need fixing.

mplayer 1.0rc-2 in testing is still missing this dependency.
