animation in the subtitles

[Chris Jensen]

Hi,
I was just mucking around with the subtitles in ghost busters (region 4,
deluxe wide screen presentation) and it seems that to go with the commentary
sound track they have silhouette of the three guys doing the commentary, but
currently vlc doesn't seem to handle it properly. Basically if I select
either of the first two subtitles (which are labelled English and Language
2) then a white silhouette of the three guys appear (although from the looks
of the back of the case it should be black). After a while the silhouette
disappears, but if I switch between the two subtitle channels quickly I can
see different silhouettes appear, so I'm guessing it's meant to be a moving
picture, but vlc doesn't seem to support this. Here's a sample of the output
from vlc launched with
 vlc -vvvvvv -t 9 -T 4 --input dvd /dev/hdc --fullscreen
(I'm using vlc 0.2.83)
