Oops... you are right, i just tried expanding to twice the actual video size
and its obvious that subs are positioned and scaled to expand dimensions. I
was misguided by a really weirdly positioned vobsubs, they were so far of
screen that moving them to a position where they should be was still leaving
them of screen...
