vlc plugin

hi to all
mediaplayer can't read subtitle at format sub/idx so i need to use vlc
plugin but problem is if i activate subtittle overlay i can see subtitle
but all language subtitle in same time , it's very funny but not usable .
if i put avi + sub/idx in mkv container mediaplayer can read sub , but if i use separate avi file + sub/idx file , this not work so

i don't know if it possible to add language selection in vlc plugin or update mediaplayer to use separate sub/idx file

thank's

try renaming your subtitle file to same exact filename of the movie but with .srt extension and see if the mediaplayer finds and decodes it correctly that way

If You need any material to work on here is some samples on which I noticed the problem:
srt
avi

I noticed that problem may appear (it's bigger) when subtitle ending time is longer than next subtitle starting time.

Some files that I noticed this problem:

movie

subtitle downloaded by Dmnapi plugin by areq (with timing problem)
subtitle downloaded by Napiproject and converter to srt via SubtitleTool (without timing problem)
"Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world.

There are files - copy it into /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/VlcPlayer

There are added new settings in config:

Enable subtitles as Track or Language: languages/tracks
Audio:
Subtitles:

It was added for streaming DVD, because DVB subs from DVD was streamed all in same time.
Now it works: if subtitles are not -1 or None, then are streamed only selected subtitles ...
must be selected audio too, because Videolans VLC Player does not know streaming All audio tracks and only one subtitles. Videolans VLC Player knows ALL (audio+subtitles) or only one audio and one subtitles.

!For DVB subtitles must be set Transcoding MPEG/DVD Video too.

added Yellow subtitles ( works for srt files ) too.

Files builded from last git sources. Let me know, if it helps...
ims has attached the following files:
  • VlcMediaList.py (9.05 kB - 126 times downloaded - latest: May 15th 2013, 5:33am)
  • VlcPlayer.py (14.82 kB - 143 times downloaded - latest: May 18th 2013, 3:34am)
  • VlcServer.py (10.85 kB - 93 times downloaded - latest: Yesterday, 5:38am)

@ims

I also have this problem, but even uploading of the enclosed files, doesnt help
Something has changed, my Dm800 does not rebbot after selecting menu subtitles.

BUT the menu subtitles is empty - even though the dvd-file (img) streamed contains severals subs.
(another problem - how can i pass the first menu in a PAL dvdr - cant choose audio subs as on a normal dvd-play??)

Must i change some setting on vlc on pc?

Do you have problem with streamed DVD subtitles ?

I am using VLC Player plugin long time ago ... I think, for DVD subtitles must be set Transcoding MPEG/DVD Video and selected true Track/Language for Subtitles. VLC will be then streaming only one subtitle track.

hi ims

yes i have problem streaming dvd sutitles from pc to dreambox. I have choosen the settings above and also Transcoding MPEG/DVD Video: yes
Subtitle overlay: Yes
Enable subtitles as Track or Language:Languages
Audio: Danish
Subtitles: Danish

BUT all subtitles are streamed and when i choose menu subtitles no languages for the subtitles are present, just blank

Any idea?

Try select it with Track. May be, there is bad string for Danish subs ?
When are subs selected with Track or Language, in menu will be only audio item.

I tried it now:
Transcode MPEG/DVD Video: Yes
Subtitle overlay: Yes
Enter subtitles as Track or Language: languages

and it works well for me.

All 4 .py files are in VLC player plugin placed (restart GUI)

Sunday, November 6th 2011, 9:55pm

I tried the following after uploading the 4 files in the specified direct. og restart of GUI:
Transcode MPEG/DVD Video: Yes
Subtitle overlay: Yes
Enter subtitles as Track or Language: languages (tried both with track and l.)

pc: Vlc - i used standard settings

Doesnt work for me - ALL subs are streamed - tried everything, also differient languages.
Perhaps another version of vlc helps?? (could u fx. attach the files needed)

Any idea Ims or msm21?
