Sub/Idx subtitle not correctly positioned

Open MonoS opened this issue 7 years ago • 8 comments

Using the latest version on XySubFilter alongside the latest version of MPC-BE and madVR some subtitle are not correctly displayed appearing some pixel below where they should be (or maybe they are bottom aligned) This does not happen on VLC or using the internal subtitle renderer of MPC-BE Here the screenshot of the problem XySubFilter xy VLC vlc Internal internal Here a test clip test_sub.zip

Thanks for the report, and just for feedback: I don't think I have the knowledge for solving this problem, since I never had to dig into the background of subtitles. Understanding and reverse engineering how it works probably does not fit into my current schedule, anyway I have saved this issue for myself.

Do you suggest to open an issue also on the main repo or on the doom9 page? As far as i can see they seems both dead :(

Ok, tried the 3.1.0.800 version of XySubFilter in MPC-HC BE (x64, v1.5.2 build 3788) and it renders correctly. Downloaded MPC-HC BE From install package x64: Install_XySubFilter.bat (admin rights) MPC-HC: Options/Add Filter/(XySubFilter) Options/Subtitles/Subtitle Renderer: choose XySubFilter

I have the latest version of both software as you can see. image image

Probably i have some faulty configuration somewhere else?

Well, madVR was not involved in my setup, not yet figured out (no time) how to do it. Does it happen w/o madVR?

Tried just now with EVR (Custom) and subtitles are displayed correctly

Had a similar problem with XySubFilter (3.1.0.752) and madVR for quite some time, but only on a very small sample of videos. The fix was to go to the madVR settings, processing -> zoom control and disabling 'move subtitles'. By default the option is set to move subtitles to the bottom of the screen/window and for some weird reason this could misplace subtitles even when it's a 720p video being perfectly upscaled to fullscreen 1080p. This didn't happen if the very first ASS line had a /pos tag. I guess the option is useful for moving SRT subtitles below the video (into a black border), but for ASS it can mess things up, so better disable it (or maybe set it to 'move into active video area', but I'm not sure if that works).
