4 The subtitle encoding issue seems a bit confusing, so I'll try to
|
|
|
5 summarize it here.
|
|
|

|
|
|
7 There are 2 approaches:
|
|
|
8
|
|
|
9 1. (preferred) You can generate Unicode subtitles with:
|
|
|
10 subfont --unicode <signle-byte encoding known by iconv> ...
|
|
|
11 or
|
|
|
12 subfont --unicode <path to custom encoding file> ...
|
|
|
13 (this custom encoding file could list all iso-8859-* characters to create
|
|
|
14 single font file for common encodings)
|
|
|
15
|
|
|
16 and then run mplayer this way (-subcp and -utf8 expect Unicode font!):
|
|
|
17 mplayer -subcp <any encoding known by iconv> ...
|
|
|
18 or
|
|
|
19 mplayer -utf8 ...
|
|
|
20
|
|
|
21 2. (current) Generate subtitles for some specific encoding with:
|
|
|
22 subfont <signle-byte encoding known by iconv> ...
|
|
|
23 or
|
|
|
24 subfont <path to custom signle-byte or EUC encoding file> ...
|
|
|
25
|
|
|
26 and then run mplayer without any encoding options for signle-byte
|
|
|
27 encodings, or with -unicode option for EUC (and the like) encodings
|
|
|
28 (which is only partially implemented in mplayer).
|
|
|
29
|
|
|
30 AFAIK, CJK encodings: EUC-*, BIG5 and GB2312 work more or less this way:
|
|
|
31 - 0x8e (SINGLE-SHIFT TWO, SS2) begins a 2-byte character,
|
|
|
32 - 0x8f (SINGLE-SHIFT THREE, SS3) begins a 3-byte character,
|
|
|
33 - 0xa0-0xff begin 2-byte characters,
|
|
|
34 - other characters are single-byte.
|
|
|
35
|
|
|
36
|
|
|
37 I tested charmap2enc script only with /usr/share/i18n/charmaps/EUC-KR.gz
|
|
|
38 (on RedHat). It wasn't intended to be perfect.
