subtitles overlap

Hello,

I have kaffeine 0.8.7 (in Debian lenny).

When I play DVB, subtitles from different pspeaking persons often
overlap - making one of them unreadable as it is hidden under the
other.

I tried enabling freetype for subtitles - this did not change things.

What should I do to fix this?

This is probably a xine issue - please make a recording and check the
resulting file e.g. with gxine.

I did make a recording with overlapping subtitles, but gxine simply
failed to display subtitles in the recording. However I managed to get
xine-ui to display them and the overlaps are there. I am off to the
xine mailing lists.

(VLC did display subtitles too. The timing of the subtitles in VLC was
different, resulting in no overlaps. The VLC timing fit the soundtrack
better. However, as this is a xine issue, the point is probably moot
here).
