K, I ripped the bitmaps and timings to import the subtitles into Maestro. Though NONE of the times overlap, on the timeline is shows some of them overlapping, making wierd stuff happen to the subs.

I think it has something to do with them being too short for Maestro to handle, or something like that? I'm not sure, but it's really ruining the subtitles, and they are NEEDED since its an anime.

Can anyone help?!

try running the son file thru vobsub (import in text mode, bottom part).
other programs created same problems for me.

Use SUBRIP to OCR the bitmaps. Then use SubStationAlpha to check them out. Then use MaestroSBT to create the new bitmaps.

You think that the times aren't overlapping, but they have to be. SSA will allow you to see where the overlaps are.

There are no overlapping subtitles in this show, I've looked over the regular official source and all of the subtitles are perfectly find, only starting when another has ended.

I looked at the SON script at the lines which had problems, and the same thing, no overlapping for the lines I knew were bad. So Maestro is doing it when I import!

No one knows how to fix it, or get around it?!!

maestro supports minimum of 15frames for subtitle length.
