The following patch adds two new command line options: -sub-bkg-color n -sub-bkg-alpha n They control the color and alpha value used to initialize the subtitles and OSD BBOX. With this you can have subtitles inside a traslucent rectangle. This is useful when a movie already have "hardcoded" subtitles and you want to overwrite them with rendered subtitles avoiding too much confusion. patch by Salvador Eduardo Tropea <[e-mail]>
