[Mplayer-users] Subtitles - feature request

[Arpi]

Hi,

There are only possible if we generate fonts at run-time. Speed isn't
problem as latest subfont-c is extremly fast, but it depends on many things,
including freetype 2.x versions.
I see no sense of keeping 10+ versions (norm/bold/italics 4 or more sizes)
of the same font pre-build.
