I had the same issue with the previous version, didn't try it with the current one.

I'm also unable to display Hebrew subtitles files. No matter what encoding and font I try to use, I get accented western characters. Maybe the problem is missing gconv modules?

It seems like latest version from extras-devel (0.1.2009.47-1+0m5-4) significantly decreases a playing frame rate (eye estimation), may be twice for some local videos.

The previous version didn't do it.

I am still looking into it but I upgraded only two apps - this and KMPlayer. However, frame rate drop is in system media player too.

It may have nothing with subtitles, it may be a problem with gst-video-thumbnailerd - see and vote for bug 8165 - https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8165

That's not possible. Code of current and previous version is exactly same. The latest version should have fixed just uninstallation problem and German translation of applet was added. Nothing more.

OK, I was tricked by 25-to-30 fps conversion: any play is not very smooth.

But then I uninstalled subtitles support then the play become visually smoother. Not twice but more regular. I don't know why, the movie has no subtitles. I have no idea which version I had before last update of subtitle package.

BTW, how to switch off subtitles? Applet button "automatic load subtitles file" doesn't help if file is .mkv

I had exactly the same situation today. Both video and audio files didn't play.
Unfortunately subtitles don't work for me. I tried several encoding options but with no success.

Confirmed. Had exactly same thing today. That's quite serious.
