 Not sure how I respond to that..,

 Err.., I've not explicitly compiled mplayer with anything., all I did to
 install was:
 
 make -DWITH_GUI install clean.
 
 Then I selected all skins *except* the one that includes Windows Media
 Player, and another that has Cryrus-something-or-the-other.
 
 That's it.

 I'd be happy to, if I knew how.., Like I said, if there's any
 truetype-anything in there, its not because I actually told mplayer to
 use it.

 Not sure if you (or anyone else) are aware, but I'm not the only one
 limping along with broken mplayer GUI players., there are quite a few
 folks with this and similar problems since portupgrading to the latest
 ports version.
 
 Anyways.., if there's a link to how I could supply that truetype thingy
 to mplayer, do let me know, I'll give it  a try.
 
 Thanks again for taking the time to reply, Thomas. Always appreciated!
