I didn't see yet any media with forced subtitles (as far as I'm aware of), except for those movies where the forced subtitle were actually added as an overlay directly at the video itself. The question here is how to properly identify when those are present. for DVD we shurelly need support at libVlc - with currently only exposes a subtitle name. If it does a good work of using an uniquely identifier at the subtitle's name, then it is doable. Otherwise libVlc needs to be patched first to add some way for apps to enum such kind of subtitles - or expose a flag to allow identify them at the standard subtitles enumeration way. Having that, enabling support for it shouldn't be hard. > Unfortunately I am not a programmer ... :( Good chance for you to learn something new :-D -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
