Hello, I have found a problem with mplayer 1.0-pre3 running on an intel p3 fedora core1, 2.6.0 kernel, gcc version 3.3.2 20031022 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.2-1) On the 294 subtitle lines, 3 or 4 aren't read, i have only noticed this with this dvd (all the anime episodes on it), the problem happens on the vobs and on the vobsubs. When i tried xine with the vobs, it did read the hidden lines. I've played with mplayer -v, it prints an output when a subtitle is read, but it is simply not shown on the screen. a 350KBytes vobsub file can be found on: http://lethalwp.dyndns.org/~lethalwp/files/vobsub/trigun-002-vobsub.tgz here is how to trigger the problem: mplayer someavi.avi -vobsub trigun-02-fr -ss 0:12:01 you should read the lines: -------- Bon, je vais faire un tour. Autant se mettre au boulot de garde du corps tout de suite. *** MISSING LINE *** Comme si je l'espio... Je ne vois pas pourquoi vous dites ca. -------- missing line (when extracted vobsub to pnm files, frame number 151), should read: J'ai conseille a Marrianne de bien tirer ses rideaux. I couldn't find what really triggers the problem :( -- Jean-Yves Simon <lethalwp@tiscali.be>
