SRT format and BSPlayer

[Feñiz]

BSPlayer is not able to work with new tags for text style in SRT (Subrip) files. I'm talking about tags <i></i> for italic, <b></b> for bold, etc.

I was watching for a solution, and I tried to convert SRT files to SUB (MicroDVD) files, using Subrip. It works correctly, but sometimes there is a little problem: SUB files can't apply format for a half line or a few works in a line . For exaple, this SRT subtitle:

1
00:00:15,889 --> 00:00:18,687
ROBERT : <i>I'm Robert McLachlan,</i>
<i>the best director in the word.</i>

is converted to this SUB subtitle:

{397}{467}ROBERT : "I'm Robert McLachlan,"|{y:i}the best director in the word.

When using the SUB subtitle with BSPlayer, the on-screen result is:

ROBERT : "I'm Robert McLachlan,"
the best director in the word.

The problem is that SUB format can't apply text format to one or two words, but only to a complete line in a subtlitle.

Now, BSPlayer seems to be no more developped, and probably will never support SRT tags. So, anybody knows a god solution for using subtitles with formatted text without those problems?

MVD sub and Ogg srt are the main subtitle formats that I know to support tags.
Your problem can only be solved if you check "use Ogg subtitle muxer" in bsplayer, although Tobias Waldvogel sacrificed image quality to CPU load :(
There's still an issue: If you take advantage of .bsi or .ini control file to playback your movies then bsplayer will kick in with its own subtitle parser regardless of your configuration concerning this.

I hope BST2K is silently working on v1.0 of his player. I don't think that he gave up without a single world to his fellows!
