Glitch in VSFilter.dll, textsub for avs 2.5

[Tofusensei]

Hi,

I just wanted to point out an error that I have encountered with Textsub plugin for avisynth 2.5. It may have just never been encountered by anyone for whatever reason, but if you use a font in an .ssa script that has japanese characters in the font name, and you try to load it in Textsub for avisynth 2.5, it causes it to fail, and it won't load the script. I'd love to see this bug fixed, so I don't have to store in huffyRGB when I do my encodes ^_^

Tofusensei, where art thou?! I've been looking for you since you left.

Is this the filter from Gabest? You might want to contact him in the "subtitles" section, if it is.

As far as I know, yes.

VSFilter comes with 2 versions, a normal one and a unicode one, have you tired loading the script with both and it fails both times? Gabest is fairly forwardthinking with his textsub stuff, I'd be surprised if he somehow messed up on kanji support

If the ssa file is not unicode then font names can be only in ANSI because the character set info only tells about the encoding of the subtitle text and not the other file structure elements.
