[vlc] Subtitles problem, ERRATUM

Wed Mar 31 09:45:57 CEST 2010

Hi,

I finally found a kind of answer : 
http://trac-test.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=45657#p145767
It looks like vlc only support dvbsubs format when streaming, but this 
topic was written on 2008, maybe there're some news ???

I've tried with .ssa , it returns :

*** glibc detected *** vlc: double free or corruption (fasttop): 
0x08d6cad0 ***
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib/i686/cmov/libc.so.6[0xb7d72624]

... etc ...

with a .sub, it returns :
[00000335] subtitle demuxer error: failed to recognize subtitle type
[00000319] main input error: no suitable demux module for 
`/subtitle:///home/.../my.sub'

With a .srt i get no return except with --verbose=2, it looks like there 
is no problem, but i still have no subtitles when reading the stream :

I first thought it was an encoding trouble, but it's the same with utf-8 
and iso-8859-15 (tested with converting the file and with the option 
"subsdec-encoding=ISO-8859-15/uft-8" )

Moreover mux=ts, and access=http seams to support streaming subtitle 
better than asf,  so my pls is now :

#EXTVLCOPT:sout=#standard{mux=ts,dst=192.168.1.15:22222/myname,access=http}

So know, i don't have a clue about what is wrong ( ...

Thanks for taking time ...
