[MPlayer-users] bug report: subtitles below image broken in mencoder

[Arpi]

Hi,

> [Automatic answer: RTFM (read DOCS, FAQ), also read DOCS/bugreports.html]
> I was just trying to use mencoder to encode a movie, with subtitles
> rendered into an expanded black area at the bottom of the picture.
> As it turns out, the subtitles get rendered fine, but they are never
> cleared, so a mess is left in the area that's supposed to be black. If
> anyone wants I can send detailed bug report, but this is quite easy to

mencoder -vop expand=320:240:0:0:1,scale=320:180 -sub foo.sub foo.avi

> Also, I noticed while playing around with expand options that if I
> explicitly put in an expand filter to render osd, then osd gets
> rendered twice, once by my expand, and once by the auto-inserted one.
hmm. it shouldn't happen...

bug

why?
