Can I have whatever it is you're smoking or drinking?

I'm looking for some part-time work, will you hire me as your editor?

Thank you. I installed Mplayer, but I need to change the font for subtitles. Can you say to me how?

in the file config in the hidden folder /root/.mplayer, you can put options like this:

font=/mnt/home/windows/fonts/arialuni.ttf
subfont-autoscale=1
subpos=100

see the documentation on the mplayer website
