Package: mplayer
Version: 2:1.3.0-8+b4
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Updated from Debian Jessie to Debian Buster.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I played a video file with subtitles. I toggled internal setting such as
audio and subtitle track.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Both the subtitles and the OSD that displays track changes were almost
unreadable.
Screenshot available at: https://gnu.moe/fb.png
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected clear text like before.
As you probably know, mplayer has quite a lot of dependencies. On irc
people instructed me to use `which-pkg-broke` but that proved quite
useless since it lists 261 packages as the possible cause.
Before I though this problem was only on experimental since that's what
some of my other machines are running but I just now made a completely
clean netinst on this machine without any desktop.
After the install I installed mplayer.
I tested a video file with subtitles and the subtitles worked fine.
Next I updated to Buster (testing).
I tested the same file as before but this time the subtitles looked like
in the screenshot I linked earlier.
