Description

Hello guys, I was thinking in developing a MediaServer to my XBox 360 with python and twisted and then I found Coherence and I won't do that anyomore. My old problem is transcoding with subtitles. I was thinking in use a process pipeline to transcode movies with subtitles. Is that possible ? Anyone tried or have a patch or something ? Thank you. Jayson

Or maybe subparse from gstreamer could be used.

I did some tests with textoverlay and worked well. http://gstreamer.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-plugins/html/gst-plugins-base-plugins-textoverlay.html I will try to do something in Coherence.

Good news, keep on.

I'd love to see this working with coherence. Subtitles are the one thing keeping me from switching from my media center PC (running freevo) to my ISP set-top-box (which has much better video output) for video.

Is there anynews on this subject ? Is it possible to override the transcoding plugin inside the xml file to use the gst-launch method given ?
