Radeon + Overlay + Subtitles

[scoffer]

Hi,

Am I only one having this kind of problem...I've used BSplayer for a long time...and it have been always the best player for movies, but now with newest version I noticed something terrible...

I'm using Ati radeon 9800 and always used overlay mode...everything fine
with newest teather mode is not working so good...
Overlay mode 1 doesn't zoom fullscreen to tv...just clones the desktop.
Overlay mode 2 zooms to tv but cannot display subtitles (yes I have marked "draw subtitles to overlay"

Is this a bug or is there something new I can't find ?

I also use a Radeon, 9200, in overlay 2 but no problems on TV-out. Do you have the latest Catalyst ?

Hi,
I also have the same problem

ATI Radeon 9600 card, theatre mode
Overlay method 2, "Draw subtitles to overlay" is checked

The subtitles are not shown on the TV but on the PC screen.

Anybody knows anything?

I've got the exact same problem with overlay Mode 2, but for me it works if i use overlay Mode 1 instead so it's not really a problem. My specs:

- BSPlayer 1.00.808 RC1 (30 Apr. 2004)
- Radeon 9600 Pro
- Latest Omega drivers based on ATI's 4.5 drivers
- WinXP SP1

Anything we can do to find out what's causing this?

I got the same problem. I tried overlay mode 1, overlay mode 2. The picture is ok, but no subtitles.

My specs:

- BSplayer version 1.02 (14 Sep 2004)
- Radeon 9800 Pro
- Omega Drivers v2.5.90 (8.07 Beta)
- Windows XP SP2


Any help appreciated.

Works for my 9800:

- Overlay mode 1
- Rename the subtitle from .sub to .srt or .txt (if it is not a vobsub file). That was the problem with my subtitles.

Only drawback: Subtitles can not be put on the black surface below the video.


Vobsub subtitles (.sub and .idx work without problems)

Try to uncheck "Draw subtitles to overlay surface"

If I do that, then no subtitles are visible on my TV.
