MaestroSBT pos(x,y) reading ssa

[Anime]

MaestroSBT is the best subtitle software where i found for making DVD subtitle,
very sad that guillep2k nolonger maintain upgrades for it
and opensource don't think anyone made any update to it....

i didn't find any DVD subtitle software which can even match against it
..... but there is a issue.... below
_____________________________
I find that maestrosbt doesn't read the pos tag in ssa and create a different picture of what it is supposed

the words also get reversed order which supposed to be translation for writtings-in-video.

but then it recongnized it own manual positioning tag if position inside the gui [edit]
and save ssa.

• wondering if there is a way to auto convert pos tag for masestrosbt
• or a way to get masestrosbt to read pos tag in ssa

edited: i find that the difference is only timing & extra line ontop of the need-to-pos-line

[ DELETED ]

[ 2ND EDIT] :

The function "\pos" is just a special case
of the function "\move", and neither VSFilter nor Maestro SBT
appear to support the "SFX side" of the SSA specification.

[guillep2k]

MaestroSBT now supports the \pos ASS tag, and reads ASS files as of version 2.6.2.0. However, manual positioning was possible since 2.1 using the preview window.
