Description Philippe Normand 2018-05-06 11:32:15 UTC 
This would be useful when using external subtitles for a video which already has burned-in subtitles. Setting the background color to opaque black would make the overlayed external subtitles readable over the burned-in subtitles.

A subtitle-background-color property would then be needed in playbin(3), uridecodebin, subtitleoverlay and ...?
