Mplayer and the missing default.sub file

After upgrading to Fedora Core 5, the mplayer media player works fine but displays a message “Failed to open ~/.mplayer/default.sub”.

A posting by ndhskp suggested to create an empty default.sub file, and that indeed got rid of the error message. Somehow, I think mplayer should have worked out how to resolve this itself.
