Author Topic: Subtitle Issue Mohd Ridzuan Film Handler Posts: 25 From: K.L , Malaysia Registered: Jul 2012 posted 02-01-2013 11:02 AM                     Hi Guys! Can someone please help me with this situation. I had a problem with the subtitle on my Barco DP2K-20C n Doremi Showvault server. The problem is when playing the movie the subtitle is too small to see. When play the same movie into other projector same model the subtitle is standard size. Easy for customer to read. If there anyway i can adjust or do a setting to make it bigger. Hopefully that someone will help me. tqvm in advanced  |  IP: Logged Paul H.

This category is related only to "film" handling questions and issues. Over there, you're much more likely to find someone who may be able to answer your question!  |  IP: Logged Bajsic Bojan Expert Film Handler Posts: 190 From: Ljubljana, Si, Eu Registered: Aug 2008 posted 02-01-2013 04:59 PM                     If it's the same CPL and same DCP (is it?), then it can maybe be: - different version of doremi firmware - doremi is set to not handle the subtitles and the projector is doing it via cinecanvas Maybe there is something else, if it is, please let me know. From what i know, you cannot make Doremi make subtitles bigger/smaller. The size and position are written into the subtitle xmls.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

Are you having the Doremi "burn-in" the subtitles or are you using the CineCanvas built into the projector? If the latter, then make sure you are on the most current software, Barco 1.9.104 and ICP 4.1.1. There have been numerous fixes relating to subtitles/captions from prior versions.  |  IP: Logged Aleksandar Obradovic Expert Film Handler Posts: 125 From: Belgrade, Serbia Registered: Oct 2012 posted 02-14-2013 03:29 PM                     I had similar situation with Doremi + Christie combo (disappearing/different size) subtitles. Problem is solved with removing "Subtitle engine" from Doremi + Doremi SW/FW update + adding again "Subtitle engine" to device list. Of course you have to disable "projector subtitles" in Device manager and use Doremi's Subtitle engine. Try this one first and if it not works update your Barco SW/FW. BR Alexander  |  IP: Logged
