View Full Version : AutoGK - Subtitle position, colors, font

Hi!

AutoGK is great fun, even if I'm still fiddling with it (I'm rather used to entering the bitrates and so on myself, and get rather surprised if a 2CD film turns out to only require 850 MB ;) )

I even managed the Evil Subtitles in Kill Bill (Japanese only) - they simply turned out to be a different stream than originally thought, and the preview option is excellent.

However (there's always an 'however')... the subtitles don't look terribly good. They are definitively positioned too high (in a 704x288 film), and they are *green* with a black backdrop, making them hard to read (should be white with a black frame). I'd prefere a slightly different font (thicker), but that's not so important.

Is there any way this can be done?

Otherwise, may I make a suggestion to the esteemed author of AutoGK?

Add two settings to the Advanced Menu:
a) Subtitle font, primary color, secondary color.
b) Subtitle y-offset on the film.

Thanks!

You cannot adjust font or color of bitmap subtitles that AutoGK uses. If you're using external subtitles, then position can be adjusted during playback via DVobSub settings.
