How to make XySubFilter auto-loading? 

XySubFilter won't load with external subtitles, and mpc subtitle render will 
load instead. but if the video contains a internal subtitle, XySubFilter will 
load correctly

I use mpc-be 1.2.0.3 madvr 0.86.9. 
Auto-load subtitles is enabled in mpc-be.

If using XySubFilter, you'd normally need to disable "Auto-load Subtitles" in 
media players like MPC-HC, or comparable settings for other media players to 
disable any built-in ISR Subtitle Renderer. Failure to do so will result in 
both XySubFilter and ISR to rendering subtitles on top of each on with madVR, 
completely redundant, and harming performance greatly.

@River1.zh

This only seems to occur in MPC-BE. They are removing XySubFilter Beta from the 
graph because we have no input/output pins when only external subtitles exist. 
MPC-HC had similar behavior which we added a workaround for in Beta, but we 
weren't aware MPC-BE shared this issue.

Please report this problem to the MPC-BE & MPC-HC developers as well, so they 
can hopefully add an exception for XySubFilter in this no-pin removal code.

Optimally, we like to remove our hackish workaround for this media player 
behavior.

Hi guys.
Could you please add support of wildcards or regexp in external subtitles paths?

I often see serials with subs in folder like:
.\Subs
.\Subs [DMC]
.\Subs (alt)
.\Subs ENG

or
.\ENG Subs
.\ENG Subs [gg]
.\ENG
.\ENG [translatoe_teem_name]

It would be convenient to add only ".\Subs*" or "\ENG*". 
Last sample I can't process by any available methods.

/Sorry for my english

This has been something on our to-do list for awhile now, see:
http://code.google.com/p/xy-vsfilter/issues/detail?id=105

Right now we are focused on core functionality and features directly related to 
XySubFilter (new subtitle interface). Other feature requests such as this which 
apply to xy-VSFilter as well, will likely come sometime after we release the 
first XySubFilter stable. Depends on time and developer interest.

Can XySubFilter render subtitles in 60fps? 
I use SVP to interpolate 23.976fps videos into 60fps, and xy-vsfilter will 
render subtitles in 60fps when I put it after ffdshow. XySubFilter seems to 
render subtitles in 23.976fps and does not look as smooth as the interpolated 
60fps video.

Yes, XySubFilter is capable of rendering at any framerate.

XySubFilter Beta 3.1.0.546 currently depends on the Subtitle Consumer (e.g. 
madVR) to report accurate information in the "frameRate" field for animation to 
be rendered smoothly. After discussing this with madshi, he informed us that 
madVR has never been VFR aware, and is unable to detect and report changes in 
video framerate to XySubFilter. He also informed us that he does not have any 
short-term plans of adding the capability to detect VFR framerate changes in 
madVR. We also discovered that as of the latest madVR 0.86.11 release, the 
madVR Consumer doesn't report accurate frame "stop" times to XySubFilter with 
SVP or VFR video either.

The next XySubFilter release will add a workaround for Consumers like madVR 
which report inaccurate "frameRate" values, which should resolve the subtitle 
smoothness issue with SVP and VFR videos. We'd still highly encourage that all 
Subtitle Consumers report accurate "frameRate" information, since it will be 
required for any Subtitle Provider which performs animation pre-buffering. 
XySubFilter does not yet support pre-buffering (only caching), so at least for 
the time being, we do not strictly require the "frameRate" field. This could 
change in the future.

Hello.
Is there any hotkey like [] in kmplayer to sync subtitles? And any way to save 
the synced subtitle file?
If not,I beg you to add it.It's completely nessecary.

Hello,

I am wondering as well if there is any Hotkey for syncing subtitles together 
with Mpc-hc? I tried using the built-in option of using F1 and F2, but I guess 
it only works for the internal filter for subtitles..? I am aware of the 
possibility of changing sync at the "timing" tab for xy-subfilter, but hotkeys 
would just be so much more  convenient! Thanks in advance, I think you guys are 
doing a great job by the way!
