If nothing helps - edit source, just comment out all "printf"'s that go
to screen. It will take not more than 30 min.

Just make subtitles as you wish, e.g. SRT format. Example:
75
00:07:49,781 --> 00:07:51,305
You made me wait in the sun
for fifteen minutes !
First is the number, they start from 1, then time start, time end. Then
title and then empty line.
Then add -sub <yourfile> to command line. Make sure you have
~/.mplayer/subfont.ttf link pointed to your
favourite font.
