I just noticed the issue while trying to render a bunch of subtitles into a movie (which is a capital crime by itself, I know, but I just really needed it on this specific occasion). And as mplayer displays subtitles happily like since forever, after a while of puzzlement I've been able to track down the offender to our mencoder's Makefile. Also, it turns out that I'm not exactly the first one to notice: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=18287 So the question stands - is there anything to gain by having fontconfig support forcefully disabled? After all this is mencoder we're talking about, one dependency more or less is just a drop in the ocean. And the current state really makes our mencoder kind of crippled... m. -- Michal Varga, Stonehenge (Gmail account)
