No (Ass) subs showing on mkv video on Xbmc 3.5.3-3.5 RC

Post by Kinstinct2 »

This is just a initial test I will post again with debug/log. Last XBMC I was using was 3.5.4 beta will test rc, final, 3.5.1, and last nightly.
Video plays fine using dvdplayer but I do have full codecs chosen for dvdplayer.

Xbmc 3.5 beta4 working: http://pastebin.com/dihHJjsz debug http://pastebin.com/ZYMb6V2K

Xbmc 3.5 rc not working debug http://pastebin.com/F1ErPL4r

Xbmc 3.5 not working http://pastebin.com/vRxndCMC

Xbmc 3.5.1 not working http://pastebin.com/NRUe0Jks

Xbmc 33017 nightly not working http://pastebin.com/7n1uSqd8 debug http://pastebin.com/N7Hf6ryH

Only 3.5 beta 4 seems to work with ass subtitles from my test with anime video. If others could test in case I messed up somewhere would be appreciated

Forgot to put system in debug mode will repost logs as debug here are 3 of them done for now

Comparing the two DEBUG logs (first and last) I'd say this is where the problem shows (last 2 lines):

XBMC4Xbox 3.5 beta4 r32788 (working)

3.5 RC1 (r32881) shows the same problem, even if not a debug log.

Now to the "exciting" part, going from revision r32788 backwards to 32881 (page 10 to 6 as of now) and identify any change that might have to do or affecting subtitles...

This may have been because I was planning to get the libass library working, and never did - and somewhere along the way broke the falling back. There is at least one ticket open you can add information to http://redmine.exotica.org.uk/issues/205
