Hi

Is the new TV Engine capable of showing DVB-subtitles? We are really looking forward to this feature in the nordic countries.

    Sorry for nagging but what about teletext subtitles?

    Some of our channels send the subtitles via teletext and some using DVB subtitles :(

    SweMart, what are you doing to the dog in your avatar?

    Teletext subtitles is not related to the new TV engine yet, it's a kind of a bug that the background doesn't get transparent. But we didn't have time yet to look into it any further...

    What about UK subtitles which I believe are based on MHEG?
    Currently it looks like this won't come in near future. Of course unless someone else will start to work on it. The core team is not working on MHEG or MHP integration for MP at the moment.

    I already see the next question coming up.... We're not working on CC (closed captions, used in USA) support either at the moment.

    Why is not in Mantis if it's considered as a bug? Just a though, but that could perhaps lead to some dev picking up the issue and making everyon

    People would also stop asking this question every week:) Maybe put it as a sticky under gen. dev in the forum?

    Cheers,

    You can always try, select any window, turn off the Media Portal, change the ID of the selected one to the desired one (plugin) and check.

    Hi, First off: there are some issues with the latest Mediaportal (32bits vs 64bits), so that is one of the issues you're stumbling with. If you take the previous version (1.31) it should work as expected. For IPTV there is also a different option (with different pros and cons): Onlinevideos. I'm using that sometimes for my IPTV as...

If you go to an episode and open the options and pick choose artwork then choose episode thumbnail it shows the correct thumbnail and says it is remote. Click on it and it goes local instantly and...

    This is not possible, only on the bluray present subtitles can be selected. Same as above. Audio streams can never be selected apart from the merged ones. You'll have to use tools like the mentioned Media-Buddy to achieve that. Subtitles of local media can be placed into the same folder (with the same name) into the video file. You...
