Subtitles in v0.7.0

Postby bizantl » 05 Jan 2004 17:01

Hi.

I apologize in advance if I got it all wrong.

Anyway. I am using OSX 10.3 and VLC player 0.7.0. When I was using v0.6.2 i could play .sub subtitles with no problem whatsoever. But when I installed v0.7.0, the subtitles would not appear. The subtitle track is disabled from the start, but the situation does not change when I enable them.

Sometimes it happenes that some portion of the text appears, but much to late. For example: text that should appear in the begining of the movie in the 700-th frame appears in the second minute of the movie.

I am playing standard divx movies and use CP1250 text encoding.

Thank you for your answers in advance,

Luka

Hi Again.

It look like MiT found an answer to my problem. He posted it in thread called "subtitles broken? (microdvd)"

The problem is in too low default frame rate. As advised i boosted it up to 25fps and they showed up nice.

But it is not too confortable setting frame rate everytime I try to watch the movie. Is there a way how to set default frame rate to a resonable number?

Thaknks for your answer in advance ant congrats again on great work with VLC.

Cheers,
Luka

OK, i found a bug, that explains why the default isn't 25fps.
I'm gonna hit someones head with a book on coding :D
I don't know who wrote this little part, but it's broken.
