Vertically Center Subtitles Below Video

Postby ShadowfeindX » 16 Feb 2023 03:55

Hello,
I have my subtitles displaying "below" my video in the black bar area by using the canvas video filter like so

If I use something like cropadd to accomplish this it adds a lot of unnecessary padding to the bottom and moves the actual video I want to display to the top of the screen.
However, the text is not vertically centered so when it transitions from two lines of text to one it looks like this

Is there any way to center the text so that it adjusts appropriately when the amount of lines change? Or potentially increase the width of the subtitle box so that all subs are one line?
My apologies if this question has already been asked, I didn't see a similar question but I wasn't really sure what to search for.

Thanks in advance.
