Screen Blackout when changing Subtitles
« on: May 08, 2013, 10:45:51 am »

Hi There,

Using the MCE Remote "up" arrow, then going to subtitle menu, and trying to change subtitles, for each change the screen goes black, and there is a delay until the movie / show resumes playing. Is this normal? Can someone try and see if you get the same behaviour?

I'm asking because some movies might have tons of subtitles available, and until you "walk" to the desired subtitle, you will get a lot of blackouts.

Thanks!

If the subtitles are embedded, changing is a stream change (IAMStreamSelect::Enable) and it will behave like you're describing.  I'm not aware of any way to speed this up.

Sidecar subtitles should change quickly since they're just an overlay on the video instead of a stream change.
