[vlc-devel] Do we have a MPEG expert in VLC?

[R. Bernstein]

Recently, I've been making steps to add SVCD subtitles to VLC.
However even before this, I noticed that when subtitles are in the
MPEG stream VLC seems to have problems. 

Here is the VCD with SVCD subtitles I'm using: 
  http://www.vcdimager.org/pub/vcdimager/.testing/svcd_ogt_test_ntsc.zip

But I bet if you have your own favorite, that would cause the below
problems too. I noticed it also with a MPEG that had CVD subtitles
encoded as well. 

The errors before the dropout I get are 
[00000181] main audio output warning: PTS is out of range (924916), dropping buffer
[00000181] main audio output warning: PTS is out of range (898872), dropping buffer
... [31 or so more of these lines with decreasing PTS numbers]

er
[00000181] main audio output warning: PTS is out of range (6778), dropping buffer
[00000181] main audio output warning: PTS is out of range (-19322), dropping buffer
[00000180] main video output warning: late picture skipped (177910)
[00000180] main video output warning: late picture skipped (127998)
[00000180] main video output warning: late picture skipped (94647)
[00000180] main video output warning: late picture skipped (44617)
[00000180] main video output warning: late picture skipped (32074)
[00000179] main decoder debug: thread 131081: secret message triggered at src/misc/block.c:410 (Connection timed out)
[00000173] mpeg_system input warning: mux_rate changed, expect cosmetic errors
[00000173] mpeg_system input warning: mux_rate changed, expect cosmetic errors


And there are still the other open MPEG questions like 

how to get MPEG system to register the streams it is handling in the
Stream/Media info.

Why multiple ES's with the same aspect ratio but different frame sizes
are detected for those VCD MPEG such as here:
