Hmm, strange, it must be something more than failing to get the version
number right. The regular expression works definitely (just execute 
'perl' on the console and paste the commands including __END__ into it):

  $out = "MPlayer 2:1.0~rc1-0ubuntu3";
  $out =~ /MPlayer.*?(\d+\.\d+(\.\d+)?)/i;
  print "vers=$1\n";
  __END__

This prints

  vers=1.0

on my system.

Can you please add a

  print $out;

line to see which mplayer output dvd::rip exactly sees?

It's mplayer which can't play subtitles compressed with newer rar 
versions (unless this changed in the meantime, didn't check this for 
longer).
