I have verified that even under X11 (no dxr3), xine does not display the 
external subtitles on time. The first susbtitle appear ok, but the later 
ones are shifted.

I have tested this on ubuntu 8.10 and Gentoo. Both versions show the 
external subtitles delayed, while all other players (vlc, mplayer) show 
them on time.

Unfortunately, I cannot find any references for such issues.
Any ideas?
