[MEncoder-users] "-ass" problem

[Bric]

My initial post was sent prematurely, by mistake.

Please respond to THIS, corrected version:


mencoder isn't manifesting my subtitles with the "-ass" option.  Oddly, it adds
my bottom margin, which is (correct me if i'm wrong) an libass feature, but no
subtitles.
 
With this command, withOUT the "-ass" option, the subtitles ARE overlaid and
burned in, but without the ass enhancements, and no bottom margin added:


mencoder myinvideo.flv -ovc xvid -xvidencopts pass=1 -oac mp3lame -sub
mysubs.srt -subcp utf8 -subfont-text-scale 3 -ass-use-margins
-ass-bottom-margin 150  -ss 0:01:10 -o myoutvideo.avi
 
With the following command, which has the "-ass" option, the resulting vid gets
the bottom margin, but no subtitles are showing.


mencoder myinvideo.flv -ovc xvid -xvidencopts pass=1 -oac mp3lame -nofontconfig
-sub mysubs.srt -subcp utf8 -subfont-text-scale 3 -ass -ass-use-margins
-ass-bottom-margin 150 -ss 0:01:10 -o myoutvideo.avi
