I have seen problems where DVD subtitles don't display at the right time and sometimes they don't appear at all. The problem stems from the fact that subtitle command packets are being applied as soon as they are read and assembled from the input stream. Sometimes, a fully assembled subtitle packet arrives at the spudec_assemble function before the previous subtitle appears onscreen and thus the viewer only sees the second subtitle. So I created a patch that queues assembled subtitle packets and applies them at the appropriate time within the heartbeat function. The reset function clears the packet queue when seeking through the video. Tomasz Farkas <[e-mail]>
