Mplayer problems.

[Charles Hallenbeck]

Hi Toby,

I get an identical error when trying to dump audio from an asf
file, although it plays the audio from asf fine if I am not
trying to capture it. And it also plays and captures mpg and mpeg
files okay too. I would be interested to know if you solve this
one. Apparently it needs those font description files for some
purposes and not for others.
