patch is located here due to size and me not knowing how to use trac (which appears to lack a simple user guide).

http://pastebin.com/mbDBe5q4

My example advancedsettings.xml entries are:

<video>
<subsoverlaymaxlinger>4</subsoverlaymaxlinger>
<substtfborderfontdisable>false</substtfborderfontdisable>
<substtfprecache>true</substtfprecache>
<substtfprecachecodes>
<add>0x0-0xFF</add>
<add>0x15E,0x130,</add>
<add>0x11F,0x15F,0x131</add>
</substtfprecachecodes>
</video>

which caches 0-255 and some extra non-english characters (Ş İ ğ ş ı.

Sorry I couldn't test properly on a newish version (though the patch is based in it) but I did try.


EDIT I forgot to include a matching srt content for help with testing

Great, I'll try to test it if I have some spare time, but I just updated to pvr version, so it won't be as soon as it could.

Anyway, you should really post this patch to trac. It's simple process. Just login with xbmc forum credentials then click New Ticket - Type: Patches, Version: SVN, Component: Video Playback. Describe what it does and why. You can also include there a link to this topic then add .diff as an attachment (check I have files to attach to this ticket and add diff in next step after clicking Create ticket)

Thanks for the tip. If you find the patch satisfactory I will try to post to trac.

great work, now how do we deal with chinese subtitles?

[cute732]

Great!,

Did you post on the trac?

Hope subtitle-render problem will be solved soon as possible.
