[MPlayer-users] color of subtitles

[Green, Shaun]

Sounds like vobsub subtitles. If they are, just edit the .idx file by adding
the line;


custom colors: ON, tridx: 1000, colors: 000000, 000000, ffffff, 000000


And they should appear white then. Now, if they're still black, swap the
ffffff to be the second position in the above command;


000000, ffffff, 000000, 000000


then if still black, put it first;


ffffff, 000000, 000000, 000000


This has always worked for me. Only trouble is the 'Winders' players I've
tried (i.e. Zoom Player) are stupid to read this correctly, so it will only
work under Linux.
