Hi there,

I have a problem that I hope someone will recognize. Whenever I play and .OGM or .MKV file with subtitles the subtitles, instead of making neat readable lines, wrap around the screen and cover each other making them very hard to read. Is this a problem with the encode of the file or something different all together? Thanks for any help you can give. Other than this problem VLC is great!

Sorry I forgot to add that I am running Mac OS 10.2.8 and have VLC 0.7.2

Thanks!

this is fixed in svn, and will be included in 0.8.0

Excuse me,what is svn? Is it a part of vlc?Can I use it on Windows 98?Where can I download it?

SVN is the system in which the current (in development) sourcecode of VLC is maintained.

It's also the name of any build that is based on those current sources.

So then there is nothing that we can do to fix this problem, and we will just have to hold our breath until the next release?

you can try the nightly builds : http://vthr.via.ecp.fr/~videolan/
