Subtitles format in MythVideo. Possible to change?

Dear mythtv-users,

I think it would be nice in my setup to switch the MythVideo player from the
mplayer to the internal one.

Apart of the benefits and consistency the internal player provides, I must
admit that I don't like the subtitles formatting. As I quite often watch
movies with subtitles (from txt,srt files), it is a little bit anoying.

I wanted to ask if there is any way to change the subtitles formating style
in the MythVideo internal player?

Thanks,
Blazej

P.S. I use mythtv since few months, and I must say it is an amazing
framework!! Good job !

I'm still on .21 fixes, but would love to be able to have the .srt files
display on a black background, since it's quite difficult to read
without it. Is that an option under the current release?

That's an option on .21 fixes and possibly even earlier. You can
enable that in your settings now.

Hello all,

black background sounds good. In general, I must admit I like what mplayer
does with the subtitles. (Kind of smooth/light dark border around the
characters). Is it possible? I use trunk.

I'd love to play with these settings. Any parameters I couldn't discover?
