Default Bug with secondary UTF8 subtitles in MKV

Hi! Here is a bug report about secondary subtitles encoded in UTF8 in BSPlayer free version 2.63.1071 Oct 09, 2012.

I always watch movies with 2 subtitles (original and native ones). That’s why I like BSPlayer the most!)
This works fine if you have .avi with a number of .srt files. Moreover, it doesn’t matter whether these .srt files are saved in ANSI or in UTF8. It all works correctly.

But it doesn’t work if you have .mkv file. Like this one, for example:
Container: Matroska
ID 0: video (V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC)
ID 1: audio (A_AAC)
ID 2: audio (A_AAC)
ID 3: audio (A_AAC)
ID 4: subtitles (S_TEXT/UTF8)
ID 5: subtitles (S_TEXT/UTF8)
ID 6: subtitles (S_TEXT/UTF8)
ID 7: subtitles (S_TEXT/UTF8)

So, here are the steps to reproduce the bug:
– open any .mkv with UTF8 subtitles (this can be either built-in subtitles or separate .srt files – it doesn’t matter, there will be bug anyway)
– Subtitles > Primary > choose any subtitles
– it works correctly
– Subtitles > Secondary > choose any other subtitles
– and here is the bug:
— it can either crash (it just crashed and I sent you a bug report, dated 2013-01-29, 14:52:19, with the link to this very post in comments section)
— or it can show only one of those subtitles (the other subtitles don’t appear at all)
— or it can show the same subtitles both in lower part and in upper part of the screen

So, the only workaround I’ve found is to extract subtitles from MKV and resave them with ANSI encoding. Then it works fine. But it’s time consuming, so it would be great if this bug could be fixed!)
