Well, may be I am doing (I did) something really wrong and bad.

I copied subtitles from title.vob:

  mencoder title.vob -ovc copy||-noframe -oac copy||-nosound  -o 
/dev/null   -vobsubout title -vobsuboutindex 0 -vobsuboutid fr|en|sp or 
whatever.

So changing some options like -ovc copy to -noframe and so on has no 
effect on title.idex.

ls -l title.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 bayrouni users  44K mar 31 15:23 batman.idx
-rw-r--r-- 1 bayrouni users  2,7M mar 31 15:23 batman.sub

and the content of title.idx is:


size: 720x576
# ON: displays only forced subtitles, OFF: shows everything
forced subs: OFF

# Language index in use
langidx: 0

id: fr, index: 0

id: xx, index: 0
timestamp: 00:00:00:053, filepos: 000000000
timestamp: 00:02:26:519, filepos: 000000800
timestamp: 00:02:50:000, filepos: 000001000
timestamp: 00:02:54:479, filepos: 000002000
....
....

There is nothing about palette colors in this file.
I am seriously wondering if my command line is correct.

But when using mplayer:
mplayer title.vob -vobsub title.sub, I get the subtitles with black color.

Someting is wrong !!!

Thank you .
