hi,
i have pal xbox with pal tv (cabable of pal60)
subtitles becomes too early and the offsync raises while watching the movie.
when turning frame adj. off and pal60 on, the subtitles works fine.
i have 2 other avi files with subtitles at the moment and with these the subs works just fine with framerat adj on pla60 off. those files have the same fps 23.976! strange...
with y-button info the framerate is diffrent between these 3 files.
ac3 passtrough is on and have optical spdif cable to amp.
here are the info from gspot, first the faulty one, then the two that works:

is it possible to speed up the sub's so i don't have to convert them to 25 fps every time ?

[sergej]

what format is the subtitle format of the movie with the problem you are referring to? if it's vobsub (.sub and .idx file) it wouldn't make too much sense, because it's timecode-based as your working formats are (at least srt and ssa, not 100% sure about smi). however if it's just a txt-based .sub file (microdvd format), it would make sense indeed. microdvd format is framecode-based, so if you adjust the framerate of the movie, the framerate of the subs also have to be changed. as temporary solution you could try a subtitle tool like: http://www.divx-digest.com/software/subt...nvert.html
and change the fps to 25.
if this works, it would be nice of course if xbmc could do that on the fly

let us know how it goes.

seems you are right,
the subtitles need 2 b speeded up as well
will look into this asap
