Resizing subtitles

[ElimGarak]

Hello!
I've been trying sresizing subtitles (they are a bit too big now) using Mencoder options in Transcode but all I got is that they didn't appear anymore neither reverting them to default size. So I'll have to remove and install PS3MS from scratch.

Is there a way I can make them a little smaller? Like 0.8?

Another thing, what is exactly "fontconfig/embedded fonts" option? Now I'm afraid to touch ANYTHING!
^__^

Thank you!

I had the same problem as you.

I solved it by changing the subtitle values under Mencoder config.
I have 0.5 1 1 15 on both ASS and standard subtitle setup.

This works good for me.

It worked, thank you! I use 0.85 instead of 0.5 because I have a SD TV.

how come when i go to mencoder config under transcoding settings

none of the subtitle options are available to me, they're all greyed out

i'm also trying to make them smaller, they're pretty huge right now

That's strange. You should have at least the first row of values if ASS/SSA subtitles are checked. The second if it's unchecked. Maybe you checked "disable subtitles" in Misc Options sections of "Common transcode settings"?

yea haha, i had the "definitely disable subtitles" option checked

that's weird, to me at least because some movies would still display the subtitles with this option checked, and i didn't figure the options would be greyed out with the subtitles disabled, my bad
