Apologies subjunk. I did not see they were now defaults, my mistake there.
The issues must be down to the DLNAPN changes and the rearranged CustomMencoderoptions. I do know you can not scale content on my bravia unless you specific state the padding/expand/area size first. This im sure has came up a long time ago back in the days of version 2.xx or 3.xx. The "softskip" option also has to be in a very specific place otherwise it does not work properly, causes issues, again been discussed a LONG time ago in PMS and UMS.
Changing them around fixes one thing (IE subtitles) but breaks the other (IE Aspect Ratio) or corrupts image in other ways if the "softskip" option is moved. I know of NO way to have both perfect on a Sony TV, me personally id sooner watch with the right aspect ratio and hardcode any subs which i need into a movie rather than watch a movie with perfect EXTERNAL subs but a screwed up Aspect Ratio. An example of one or the other working is here....

You can not have both perfect.
A user name OIIil on here has in the past done extensive testing and found the options have to be in a specific order to work as near as perfect as possible....

Changing the custom Mencoder options just to fixed subs but break Aspect Ratio was silly. Sony devices are VERY FUSSY and any changes should in future be tested first or test builds created each time.
