In this particular case there was no reason to leave them soft. I wasn't
expecting Klingon speaking audience who would want to watch the movie
without subs ;-)

An easy-to-implement fix for the problem would be that mencoder would
have an option to deduce the time from the frame count. That would of
course break in mplayer the moment the user hits any cursor key, but
mencoder wouldn't have such problem.
