I use the latest 5.0.3.5_2 firmware for elta 8883a dvd player.
Generally I am satisfied with the performance because it shows
everything you give him. But I have problems with external
subtitles for mpeg4 files. Sometimes subtitles vanish during playback.
In fact not sometimes very often.
Although everything seems ok with video and audio,I have to
restart the film and goto the position where subtitle disappears.
Do you also have similiar problem with your dvd player with
chipset MT1398DE and of course do you have a solution for this?
Regards,
Burak

hi !

it's a common problem for all the MT1389 based players when playing back xvid+ac3 files in AVI2.0 (or OpenDML) format. (this is true in the majority of cases, but it can be caused by other reasons too, of course)

there is a permanent and a temporary solution to this (thx to Gor for finding out).

the temporary solution might be to either
- slow down the playback for a moment using the SLOW button or
- using the << and >> buttons you move forward and then backward a bit or
- you initiate a loop using the A-B button

the permanent solution: usually helps to remux the file to the older AVI1.0 format (using e.g. VirtualDubMod).

i hope this helped.
