I added this code myself a long time ago, but now I am quite convinced that it is wrong: Why would we filter out SPU stream change events that switch SPUs off? This breaks watching the trailer on the RC2 of "Girl, interrupted", because you always get unwanted subtitles. When I added this code, it fixed a problem with the RC2 of "Terminator", but I cannot reproduce this problem any more. Back then, the menu highlights would not show up, but they do now. I assume the problem really got fixed with proper support for forced subtitles in xine, so this crappy workaround here can go away. After all, this way it is more symmetric to audio stream change events, because these are not filtered.
