From 9e6933440ae59c523fce85b64d6f52f444910003 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: harklu Date: Thu, 4 Aug 2011 21:47:36 +0200 Subject: options, subs: add --ass-vsfilter-aspect-compat Add option --ass-vsfilter-aspect-compat and corresponding property ass_vsfilter_aspect_compat. The setting controls whether to enable the emulation of traditional VSFilter behavior where subtitles are stretched if the video is anamorphic (previously always enabled for native SSA/ASS subtitles). Enabled by default. Add 'V' as a new default keybinding to toggle the property. --- DOCS/man/en/mplayer.1 | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) (limited to 'DOCS/man') diff --git a/DOCS/man/en/mplayer.1 b/DOCS/man/en/mplayer.1 index bbbea0e7c2..3575fb22a6 100644 --- a/DOCS/man/en/mplayer.1 +++ b/DOCS/man/en/mplayer.1 @@ -251,6 +251,9 @@ Toggle displaying "forced subtitles".
