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,

    In addition to what other people have said, MPC VR also has support for: hardware deinterlacing with D3D11 decoding, which madVR never implemented DXVA Super Resolution, the way which e.g. NVIDIA and Intel GPUs can provide AI upscaling HLG HDR (used by some broadcasters), which madVR doesn't (Edit) It can also turn Windows HDR on and...

    Thank you for pointing out that my analysis may be less than accurate. :eek: :p Although the change to TV channel 71 may not also have been applied to the independent radio channels (different MUXes), the logs that I prepared for one of the development team does show a difference between channel 704 ("BBC Radio 4") and channel 731...

    In the UK, the EPG transmitted in the DVB-T datastream allows each programme to have two genres -- a primary genre, and a secondary genre (i.e. a subgenre). The primary genre might be something like Film (or Movie in the USA). The secondary genre for Film might be something like: Action, Comedy, Crime, Fantasy, Romance, Science...
