Hello:

While packaging MPlayer for Debian, lintian found the following issues:
 ./de/mplayer.1
    <standard input>:10732: warning: macro `..).' not defined
 ./es/mplayer.1
    <standard input>:527: warning: macro `yes'' not defined
    <standard input>:5044: warning: macro `OPs' not defined (possibly
missing space after `OP')
 ./fr/mplayer.1
    <standard input>:222: warning: macro `Rs' not defined
    <standard input>:6743: warning: macro `Bs' not defined
    <standard input>:9821: warning: numeric expression expected (got `l')
 ./hu/mplayer.1
    <standard input>:4181: warning: macro `mplayer' not defined
    <standard input>:7192: warning: macro `mencoder' not defined
    <standard input>:7567: warning: macro `shotNNNN.png'' not defined
    <standard input>:9849: warning: macro `b' not defined
 ./it/mplayer.1
    <standard input>:5741: warning: macro `..)' not defined
    <standard input>:5954: warning: macro `u'' not defined
 ./zh_CN/mplayer.1
    <standard input>:8141: warning: macro `RE.' not defined (possibly
missing space after `RE')

The issues are mainly starting a line with the reserved characters '.'
" ' " or typos in the macros. It results in the affected lines being
ignored therefore having missing documentation or wrong alignment. The
following patch is one way to fix the issues.

Cheers,
Miguel
