</div>Are you limiting to .srt or any text format? Because I believe VLC<br>
supports many more text formats.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>We're not limiting to just *.srt. It doesn't matter to us what kind of plain format the text is in as long as it's easily downloadable and doesn't have to be processed more than necessary. </div>

</div>If you speak about this Festival: <a href="http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/" target="_blank">http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/</a><br>
the license, is a X11 type license and is compatible with the LGPL and<br>
GPLv2+ of VLC.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That's good to know. How would it work if the user already had a licensed engine on their system? </div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">

<br>
</div>What OS are targetted by the project?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Hopefully all OS that VLC itself targets. Is there a need to limit this - I mean, it there a lot of extra work doing it for each OS? In that case, I'd say Windows would be our main OS, MacOS as second and Ubuntu as third. </div>
