Italics and Bold support

[AIE88]

It works with VLC 1.1
That would be great if this was fixed in the next minor version.

I doubt it will.

Why, why VLC does not show italics in subtitles right? Believe me, it's better to have that .srt-file (SubRip) style (html) <i>...</i> than .sub-file (MicroDVD) style {Y:i}. Most of my subtitles are .sub-files, and VLC does not hide the {Y:i} like with .srt-files, oh no, it shows all of them =(

Why, why VLC does not show italics in subtitles right?

Because there aren't proper standards for those formats.

You might be right about the <i>...</i> (SubRip) not being standard, but the {Y:i} MicroDVD sure as hell is a standard:

So again, why?

[VLC_help]

You have some specifications for MicroDVD format? Something similar like SSA/AS S has

Missing sample files?

I contacted Tiamat Software asking about the subtitle specifications and they were kind enough to send me them. I couldn't attach file to this thread, so I uploaded them into MegaUpload:

Thanks. Trac ticket re-opened

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

No please... Do NOT reopen a ticket on something similar but not the same. This is a different matter.

[VLC_help]

It is same thing.
