-ass option doesn't affect the output. Here is the command line:

mencoder ksc_input.mov -ovc raw  -o output.avi -oac pcm -ass -sub subita.srt

I got the same output as:

mencoder ksc_input.mov -ovc raw  -o output.avi -oac pcm -sub subita.srt

fonts on the raw video are not rendered as oblique with the <i> </i> tag
