There is an old 2006 post about this bug and I'll quote it: <moonwatcher> mplayer -flip-hebrew -fribidi-charset UTF-8 -subfont-encoding unicode -utf8 -sub heb.srt "Jules et Jim.mkv" <moonwatcher> works <moonwatcher> why doesnt it play the matroska file correctly :( <moonwatcher> mplayer -sid 1 -flip-hebrew -fribidi-charset UTF-8 -subfont-encoding unicode -utf8 "Jules et Jim.mkv" <moonwatcher> doesnt work <moonwatcher> while using the external file (which i just extracted from the mkv file with the same application the muxed it) works ... <moonwatcher> any reason why i cant flip the font in the matroska? ( http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-advusers/2006-August/001473.html ) I'm still encountering the same problem with the svn version .. Thanks, Denis
