Look at how
http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/MPlayer/build/MPlayer.SlackBuild
handles the langages, as well as adding a TTF font for the OSD.
As for the menu, I recall that for that to work, you have to have have
libdvdnav installed, I tried it but as a menu system it sucks. MPlayer
was never designed for a menu overlay and it will probably not get better.

Cheers, Eric
