Bug Description

Binary package hint: mplayer

Hi. Apparently, Mplayer won't open subtitles file if there's a comma in its path, though it plays the video file OK.

the error is (file is under "/datos/peliculas/Paris, Texas/"):

File not found: '/datos/peliculas/Paris'
Failed to open /datos/peliculas/Paris.
Cannot load subtitles: /datos/peliculas/Paris
File not found: ' Texas/Paris.Texas.CD1.srt'
Failed to open Texas/Paris.Texas.CD1.srt.
Cannot load subtitles: Texas/Paris.Texas.CD1.srt

I guess this is an upstream bug, but since I'm not sure, I'm submitting it here. Thanks.
