GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 549636
Right to Left Subtitles
Last modified: 2008-08-29 13:04:36 UTC
I saw in Totem that subtitles are only left to right, but in Arabic and other languages we write right to left. So, it is a feature request not a bug but I do not find and section for that or any email. So, pls add this feature Thank you
Which encoding did you select in the preferences? Do you have an example file to reproduce the problem?
Created attachment 117491 [details] Subtitle for Dexter season 1 episode 1. The encoding is Arabic(Windows-12565) I have downloaded a Movie with its subtitle but the text goes Left to Right while Arabic is right to left. I will uploaded the subtitle file.

Created attachment 117509 [details] What it looks like on my system Is this how it's supposed to look like, or is it the wrong direction?
Also, which backend are you using, xine-lib, or GStreamer?
