Ver 2.2.0 with some subtitles problems

Post by microblue »

Hi,
I' have some subtitles problem when I finished ver 2.2.0 installation. When i watch a mkv file with srt subtitles, ums seems to slow both srt subtitles and embedded subtitles.
Then two subtitles mixed up on the screen.
It never happened with older version.
Is it a bug?

Hi,
try to find something like this in renderer conf file (this is from Panasonic.conf)

Code: Select all

CustomMencoderOptions=-vf softskip,expand=::::1:16\/9:4
and change this to

Code: Select all

CustomMencoderOptions=-vf softskip,expand=:::::16\/9:4
The -vf expand code explained -
expand[=w:h:x:y:o:a:r]

Expands (not scales) movie resolution to the given value and places the unscaled original at coordinates x, y. Can be used for placing subtitles/OSD in the resulting black bands.

<w>,<h>
Expanded width,height (default: original width,height). Negative values for w and h are treated as offsets to the original size.

<x>,<y>
position of original image on the expanded image (default: center)

<o>
OSD/subtitle rendering
0: disable (default)
1: enable

<a>
Expands to fit an aspect instead of a resolution (default: 0).

<r>
Rounds up to make both width and height divisible by <r> (default: 1).

I have the same problem, never had this problem before.. PS3.conf doesn't have the line (it's completely empty), so this should be handled through the GUI itself. I Have 'ASS/SSA subtitle styling' unchecked, but 'fontconfig' and 'embedded style' checked.. For now I just remuxed the original subtiles out of the mkv, but that shouldn't be the solution.. So I hope this will be fixed in the next release (I'm using 2.2.1)..

as requested, hope you can solve the problem.. I must admit, that I also tried Judge dredd before tai chi knowing that it had also embeded subtitles, but it seems it didn't have the problem, but tai chi hero does..

I tried the newly supplied version and the subtitle problem seems to be fixed.
I tested it by installing this new version, went to a scene where I knew it had double subtitles, noticed it only showing the external subtitles, then installed 2.2.2, checked again, noticed the double subtitles, reinstalled superdre version again and checked again to see the external subtitles only again.. so it seems to be fixed..

thanx..
