Hello ppls ^^

Ive got a problem with vobsub, it has been happening for awhile for me since version 2.10 or so (Yeah i while ago), when i play movie files with external subs it causes my explorer to crash, and i loose all my tray icons etc etc, really annoying, anyone have anything similar happen? @_@ It happens with both Media Player 7 and Zoom Player, just installed WMP9 recently and it still crashes, so i blame it on vobsub itself ^^
btw, it crashes just as i click the X to close the player, plays fine otherwise.

The second part is about having squashed looking subs, using Gordian Knot i setup my .avs and select the .idx file from there, while viewing the movie in Virtual dub the height of the subs are much shorter then the DVD's, making the subs squashed (Sort of like having an incorrect aspect ratio :) )
I can only think this is due to me cropping the black bars out of the image, making the image not as tall as it was. Can this be fixed? I tried making the subs external and playing that way, and i get my usual "Crash" problem spoken above, though the subs look correct and somehow i have my black bars back and the player window is HUGE. @_@

I never had this problem with explorer and dvobsub, but I've already about it.

The AR can be corrected with those slider controls next to the red rectangle in the vobsub plugin.

Thanks for your reply! :D
It took a little tweaking but i eventually got the subs looking excellent, thankyou :)

About the crashing issue, if its not common, then maybe i have installed something along the line vobsub doesnt agree with?

Im probably due for a format anyway :p

Anyhow, thanks again!
