these fonts are part of the mplayer-share package and you already have
them installed on your system.

to use them do e.g.:

 echo "font=3D/usr/pkg/share/mplayer/fonts/font-arial-24-iso-8859-2/font.de=
sc" >> ~/.mplayer/config

or alternatively:

 cd ~/.mplayer
 ln -s /usr/pkg/share/mplayer/fonts/font-arial-24-iso-8859-2 font

that's all.  also see the "-font" section of the mplayer manual page.
