New DVB subtitle filter (TsReader based) (1 Viewer)

[tourettes]

I might have an idea how to *fix* my problem.
On the old svn's tsreader wasn't enabled by default, now it is.
Maybe an option somewhere to put it on and off?
If I may be so free to ask did you have time to look at the streams I uploaded? Noticed anything?

TSFileSource is not an option anymore. As justification we are so small team that there simply isn't enough time to keep two separate filters to be updated / fixed. Also it would just create non-valid bug reports when users use either of those filters and don't know actully wich one.

Also with TSFileSource it's not possible to have subtitles working at all... so at least this thread isn't the right place to try to get the TSFileSource as and optional file reader

:sorry:

I found the fix!!! ANd it's rather interesting, you should read it and tell me what you think, it's trully weird this is the solution!

Subtitles are send as a (720x576) bitmap. That bitmap needs to be streached to the whole video area (currently it's limited to 4:3 aspect ration so the texts aren't getting as ugly as on some settop boxes).

We cannot increase the subtitles size as it would then mean that if the bitmap contains subtitling data in the upper part then that subtitling would be cut off.

Just a little more information:

The newest SVN (16921) now has a new teletext synch. mechanism. Currently it doesnt make use of the timing compensation (im working on doing that correctly). Therefore it will display subs slightly too early, the magnitude depending on the filters used.

More importantly it also supports auto selection between those subs for which the language is known. To make use of this add an entry like this to the mytv section in Mediaportal.xml:

<entry name="sublangs">dan,eng,nor,swe,fin</entry>

This means that danish (dan) is prefered, and the second best choice is english, etc. The subtitle selector always prefers bitmap subs over teletext subs (as they contain better timing info and usually are prettier to look at).

Please note that this is a work-in-progress, so it might not work perfectly. I am spending as much time as i have available on this.
