Custom Video Modes and DLNA
« on: April 11, 2013, 04:28:30 am »

I'm a little curious how this works, and if it possible to get my DLNA stream to send what my local machine would render if it were playing it..

i.e    If I were playing on the machine itself, I have it set to use Haali + xy-Vsfilter for Rendering instead,  which gives me subtitles as they were intended to be rendered (special formatting etc).

Is it possible to get that same behavior via DLNA?

I just use RO and when pushed over DLNA (with video conversion on) the subs are burnt into the transcoded video stream.

Like I said..  The subtitles show up, the problem is, currently  RO does not support all currently known Advanced Substation Alpha specs,   so the subs do not come through formatted properly.

I have mitigated the issue by finally figuring out how to get MC to play nice and use Haali / xy-Vsfilter  when playing on the PC,  but I don't know of any way to accomplish this via DLNA since it seems to default to  RO.

Could any devs comment on this behavior?

Is it correct?   Could we discuss changing it?

In my view,  if I set it to always transcode  should it not be delivering the transcoded stream, as it is setup to  be rendered using my custom video mode?    I don't see why it can't burn those Haali rendered subs into the stream, if it can already do so with the Red October sub renderer.

I have the same desire!

I just use RO and when pushed over DLNA (with video conversion on) the subs are burnt into the transcoded video stream.

But then I need to always convert video, which seems a shame.
