     Hmm. Release again. Tons of new features, beta GUI version, bugs fixed,
     new vo and ao drivers, ported to many systems, including opensource DivX
     codecs and much more. Try it!

 <P>Yes, <B>MPlayer</B> also supports many kinds of subtitles. Currently
-7 kinds of subtitle can be used by the subreader code. To see what are
-these subtitle formats, see subreader.c, line ~20.</P>

+<P><B>MPlayer</B> introduces a new subtitle format called <B><I>MPsub</I></B>.
+It was designed by me (Gabucino). Basically its main feature is being
+<I>dynamically</I> time-based (although it has frame-based mode too). Example (from
+<A HREF="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/tech/mpsub.sub">DOCS/tech/mpsub.sub</A>) :
+</P>
+
+<P><CODE><I>
+# first number  : wait this much after previous subtitle disappeared<BR>
+# second number : display the current subtitle for this many seconds<BR>

+Naboo was under an attack.<BR>

+
+<P>So you see, the main goal was to <B>make subtitle editing/timing/joining/cutting easy</B>. And,
+if you - say - get an SSA subtitle but it's badly timed/delayed to your
+version of the movie, you simply do a <I>mplayer dummy.avi -sub source.ssa
+-dumpmpsub</I> . A <CODE>dump.mpsub</CODE> file will be created in the
+current directory, which will contain the source subtitle's text, but in
+<B>MPsub</B> format. Then you can freely add/substract seconds to/from the
+subtitle.</P>
 
 <P>Subtitles are displayed with a technique called <B>'OSD', On Screen Display</B>.
 OSD is used to display current time, volume bar, seek bar etc.</P>
