GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 610310
[playbin2] Subtitle encoding property has no effect
Last modified: 2010-02-22 19:47:55 UTC
After upgrading to gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.26-1.fc12 (from gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.25.1-2.fc12), the totem subtitle encoding setting no longer seems to be respected. Even though I have set cp1250 there, the non-ascii characters in the subs are displayed as garbage. Downgrading to 0.10.25.1 fixes the problem.

Created attachment 154334 [details] [review] playbin2, playsink, subtitleoverlay: Set subtitle encoding properly For this add subtitle encoding properties to playsink and subtitleoverlay and update the values in the containing elements. Also update the font description in textoverlay or the used renderer element if it is changed during playback. Fixes bug #610310.
I can confirm that the above patch fixes the problem.
Great, thanks for testing. However, the bug should only be marked as FIXED once the fix has been committed, so reopening.
