[QUOTE="alltheway, post: 1062914, member: 88146"] Hello all, I've lately moved to MP 1.6 from 1.2.3, I was very pleased with the older version which used FFDshow for HD video especially because of the extremely configurable subs engine. I have some problems with eye sight and to watch subtitles in a comfortable way I need them to be in very good contrast to the background and yet not too bright. The color I used with FFDshow was kind of goldish-bronze, good contrast and not too bright. Now with Lav filters I have to go back to MPC-HC subs engine which is very limited configuration vise from within the MP configurator. My solution for the moment is to edit manually mediaportal.xml and to enter the color code "FEE11B" for example and save the file. Is there a better way of doing it? Without editing the XML file? I've noticed that after editing the file and entering a color manually, when I open the MPC-HC subs configuration I have an additional color which is the one I've entered and it's marked as Custom, so there is an option for custom color but without a way on doing it? I understand that the MPC-HC subs module was written for MediaPortral long ago and no one is going to upgrade it but maybe you guys know of some elegant way to change it (the font color) more easily?
