[xine-user] How do I configure spu subtitles?

[<and...@po...>]

Hello!
I have some questions on how to use text-file subtitles. (like .sub)

#1, Why does it have to display the text "spu decoder" every time the movie is started?
(It happens also when you have seeked and discharged the slide.)
It does that even when OSD is turned off.
Is there a setting for this? Or could it be in next release?

#2, I'm interested in learning more about how to configure the subtitle fonts. Since I can find no information about it in the how-to, could someone please assist?

a) Must the subtitles be located in /usr/share/xine/fonts ?
b) Is there a certain format required? I see all files are gzip files contain a *.xinefont file. I have som .ttf files. How do I use them?
c) In .xine/config I see only a setting for font, but not for size or color or style. How do you change that?
d) Did it exist support for having bars behind the text? If so, where is the configuration string?

Kindly, Thanks
Andy
