I think I asked about this before, but I still have not found an answer.
When I launch mplayer from aterm I get this type of symbols on my terminal:
===============================================
$ mplayer

===============================================
As a matter of fact, they are slightly different - i.e. there are rectangular
little squares between the "I"s on the aterm and all "I"s look like this "Ï".
Anyway, the same happens with konsole and plain xterms - although the xterm
show it exactly as attached here. Any idea what is causing this?
BTW, these are my use flags:
# emerge -pDv mplayer
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Did you try an unicode terminal with unicode font? I am using
rxvt-unicode with terminus font. Clear output from mplayer should be
helpful.

some normal chars. If I look at the file with emacs or cat it, they
all show up as ordinary question marks.

The attached file looks "fine" to me:

It is in a foreign language, though. Something with a Cyrillic script that
I do not read.
I'm not sure how mplayer has decided you want that language. Could you
post the output of:
env | grep -E '^L(C_|ANG)'
so I can see the environment variables that affect gettext and POSIX
message catalogs?

Characters of your output appears like characters from rusian alphabet
(azbuka) on my terminal. It seem like regular russian words.

I assume that you refer to felix's attachment, rather than my terminal output.
$ env | grep -E '^L(C_|ANG)'
$
It produces no output . . .

Yes.

Hrm, in that case applications are supposed to fall back to the "C" locale,
IIRC. However, it's possible that mplayer is trying to guess your
language and getting it wrong.
Try doing:
LANG=en_US; export LANG
before your mplayer command and see if that helps.

Hi,
These are bulgarian cyrillic symbols, can read them (messages,info etc.)
Check the LANG var in make.conf, LINGUAS too.
Please post the output of: 'locale -a' as a user plus 'env | grep LANG'.

This is it:
$ locale -a
C
POSIX
el_GR
el_GR.utf8
en_GB
en_GB.utf8
en_US
en_US.utf8
(of course I don't have the cyrillic symbols/languages in my player output).

Same difference.
In my case, I set LINGUAS in /etc/make.conf out of curiosity many
moons ago:
LINGUAS="en_US af ar az bg bn br bs ca cs cy da de el en_GB eo es et
eu fa fi fr fy ga gl he hi hr hu is it ja km ko lt lv mk mn ms nb nds
nl nn pa pl pt pt_BR ro ru rw se sk sl sr sr@Latn ss sv ta tg tr uk uz
zh_CN zh_TW"
Kinda overkill but it is interesting in some programs even if I don't
have any actual use for it. But I made sure to put en_US first.

Mplayer comes from Hungary, right? Could this be Hungarian?
$ locale -a | head
C
POSIX
aa_DJ
aa_DJ.utf8
aa_ER
aa_ER@saaho
aa_ET
af_ZA
af_ZA.utf8
am_ET
I set LINGUAS for fun a while back, making sure en_US was first:
LINGUAS="en_US af ar az bg bn br bs ca cs cy da de el en_GB eo es et
eu fa fi fr fy ga gl he hi hr hu is it ja km ko lt lv mk mn ms nb nds

Good thinking! I do not have Hungarian in my locales or in my LINGUAS.
Perhaps that's something to do with this problem?
