Subtitles size on the fly (hotkey)

Postby rolle » 28 Feb 2009 00:33

Didn't find any related topic for this. I use my laptop (eee pc 901) to watch movies on TV screen and when I'm watching movie on TV, I have to set subtitle size like 39px to it to be big and sharp enough. When I decide to watch a movie on my laptop in bed for example, I have to set size again smaller, like 19px because the size I'm using watchin TV is way too big for my laptop screen. I don't want to use relative size because the difference between normal, large and larger is too big....

So, what I'm asking is: Is there a way to size subtitles on the fly like with some hotkey or someting. Didn't find anything like that. It would be great if you could resize subtitle font by pressing some key or something like linux -mplayer's. Thanks in advance!

There isn't hotkey for that, would you want one?

Five years, really?! Well that's five years I've been using kmplayer instead, just because of the lack of this little function. I even registered this account only so that I could tell you all :)
And I won't be using this forum account ever again, because of this STUPID lOWERScASEUPPERcaSEpASSWORDbullSHIT requirement. :evil: Pleease don't treat me like a kid/fool, I know the risks of using 'unsafe' passwords!
Take care.
