If you experience a growing delay between the movie and the subtitles when
using a MicroDVD subtitle file, most likely the frame rate of the movie and
the subtitle file are different. Please note that the MicroDVD subtitle
-format uses absolute frame numbers for its timing, and therefore the
-<option>-subfps</option> option cannot be used with this format. As
