Hey,


There appears to be a bug in the sub-engine of mplayer (latest cvs):

when:
mplayer somedummy.avi -sub lotr1-24010\ DEF.txt  -subdelay 1 -subfps 24
-dumpsrtsub

it saves the subtitles in a file just before launching the movie ok.

but it's converting it a wrong way!

---------SNIP-----------FILE1 (original)
{810}{885} The World is changed...
{886}{961} I feel it in the water...
{971}{1063} I feel it in the Earth...
{1082}{1147} I smell it in the air...
...
----------------

gives

------SNIP--FILE2----- (converted)
1
00:00:08,010 --> 00:00:08,085
 The World is changed...
2
00:00:08,086 --> 00:00:09,061
 I feel it in the water...

3
00:00:09,071 --> 00:00:10,063
 I feel it in the Earth...

4
00:00:10,082 --> 00:00:11,047
 I smell it in the air...

------
Is wrong
since they are basded on the fram numbers
not on the time!


If you want to try, you can d/l the "original" sub from 
http://lethalwp.dyndns.org/~lethalwp/files/lotr1-24010%20DEF.txt


Also, i have another sub-version, which is directly derivated from the
dvd .ifo & .sub
those are totally unusable!: 

mplayer lotr-cd1.avi -vobsub lotr-cd1 -vobsubid 1


when playing, no subs are shown, when seeking:

SPUasm: invalid fragment
SPUasm: invalid frag len / len2: 1889 / 0 
SPUasm: packet too short
SPUasm: invalid fragment
SPUasm: invalid fragment
SPUasm: invalid fragment
SPUasm: invalid frag len / len2: 1573 / 0 

I agree the provided subs are maybe broken (i have no dvd reader, so
i've never played with dvds&mplayer)... But what if they were not?

if you want to take a look at it:

PS: mplayer has also very big A/V sync problems on the files u/l at:
ftp://mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming
( how-highfr.avi and allymcbealep1vf.avi )

PPS: i'm too dub to fix it, so i'm just reporting it ;)
