Help needed with DVB subtitles (1 Viewer)

[Seidelin]

I've tested the filter (06), and found no issues, although the display time of some (very few) subtitles looked suspiciously short (it may have been an issue with the low quality of the subtitling in the program). I encountered no stability issues, and the timing of the subtitles was fine when seeking/pausing/watching live TV and recordings.

However, to at least report something:
When viewing a recording on a HD screen (1920x1200), the rescaling results in a thin green line around the subtitles as previously reported. No big issue, I only notice it since it is my computer monitor and I sit very close.

The subtitles still don't work in multi-seat setup streaming from the TV-server.

You could check the c:\DVBsub.log and see what values TIMEOUT has.

Known issue, but so minor that I haven't been yet looking at it.

Something that I haven't been yet looking at. I hope it's something that's easy to fix

The timeout is always forced to 5 s (from 60). But some subtitles are displayed way less than 5 s, even though it seems possible to display them longer. I have no idea why.

I will PM you a message with a link to download a sample where it can be observed.
I have attached the log where the third subtitle is displayed for too short a time, and the logs looks a little strange with e.g. double timeout corrections.

A new version available. Should fix some subtitle filter hangs.

Please notice that there is following error report in the Mantins : http://mantis.team-mediaportal.com/view.php?id=1001 So when testing, until that error is fixed, please restart MP before the 21 playback starting count is reached

That probably explains the hangs I've experienced while testing

Well, there were also some hangs / freezes in the subtitle filter

Still experiencing delay problems when watching live TV with the latest test version. The subtitles are showing late and because of the timeout they are showing only for a short amount of time (sometimes just flashing).

Exactly what I experience too.

Fixing live tv is a little bit problematic as it's working fine for me. Maybe someone who has the issue is able to debug the timing code?

btw. are you guys talking about the multiseat live tv or single seat? As single seat is only supported right now.
