good to hear that libass can already cope with the ucs-2 issue, looking 
forward for it to replace the old text-sub system.

I've tried to do that, but the frustrating thing is that the subreader code is 
that it use the stream layer to read the data line by line, which means a lot 
of iconv will be added or changeing the data reading method from stream to 
something else, I was scared :(
