Description Sven Arvidsson 2009-09-29 18:57:26 UTC 
GStreamer is slower than other video players, like MPlayer, when it comes to displaying subtitles after a seek or after switching subtitle. This isn't a new problem, but it's more visible now that Totem saves the position in a file.

For example, upon loading and starting to play a movie, the subtitle is set to spanish, after a switch to english I still get one more subtitle in spanish.

This is with text subtitles, I haven't tried with a proper DVD yet.

This should be much better with gst-plugins-base GIT. Can you check?

For external subtitles it should be almost perfect, for internal subtitles (i.e. in the container format) it's still not perfect. But you should get the correct subtitles after some seconds or immediately if you seek.

I'm having some trouble building from git at the moment, and no time to sort it out at the moment, so I will take your word for it :)
