Yeah, there is currently no support for context-sensitive glyph substitution as is mandatory with Arabic-based scripts. To fix this would require moving to something like Pango for text layout.

It inserts what DVD-Video calls a “subpicture” stream into the MPEG file. This is a bitmap that can display any image (not necessarily text) and can animate, just so long as it doesn’t use more than four colours at a time. You can have up to 32 of these, which can be used for subtitles in different languages, different screen aspect ratios (16:9 vs 4:3) etc. > and yet another question: does dvdauthor(specially spumux) have any > python module? There is no DVDAuthor sharable library, but it’s easy enough to run the programs via subprocess.Popen, feed them input via pipes etc. What sort of things are you trying to do? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Dvdauthor-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dvdauthor-users
