Hi, I wonder if freevo/any linux player supports vobsub subtitles? (these are 'bitmap' subs from what I understand). Normally they come as a pair of 'idx' and 'sub' files (with the sub file very often 'rar' archived). Can't say I put too much effort in trying to make them work, but the first

Actually, I think you are right - it was either my mistake or Xine was overwriting my settings - the subtitle size was reset back to default value all the time. Now it seems to be working as expected. Thanks, Vlad On 6/28/07, Christian Lyra [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hi, I wonder if anyone
