Description qmax 2009-06-13 21:58:28 UTC 
this feature could be very usefull, esp. because gstreamer is used in subtitleeditor: http://home.gna.org/subtitleeditor/

a good way of handling it implementing in mplayer - it keeps previous message in the same place. this requires to check forward to reserve place for next one.

a simpler way implemented in youtube player - it simple stacks overlapping captions top-to bottom.

either way could be appropriative.
