A300 can't pull srt in black bar

[Sciolto]

Bought a replacement A-300 after the power supply of my C-200 died on me.

With the C-200 I was able to reposition the subs in the black bar below the movie when the black bar is available. Repositioning to zero with the A-300 however still leaves the subtitles displayed within the video frame and not in the black bar below which I have come to appreciate a lot in the C-200.

Please fix this a.s.a.p. with a new firmware. Never thought a new generation chip and software would result in a downgrade like this.

Search the forum and put your vote to the request to have subtitles displayed in black bar in the thread in the Bugs/Features section that exists already.

This was done deliberately by the way. It was done for the small minority that have anamorphic projectors/lens and need subs to be in the image or they can be cut off. They need a setting for those limited numbers and not bugger it up for the majority.

I may address that thread too. Thanks for the tip!

I fail to see however why the ability to manually change the position of the subs to below the video is actually a problem for this projector / lens minority, since they would be able to set the default to a value that is within the video frame. Since this 'feature' appears to be 'by design' I don't think I should wait past the 8 day return policy. Asking back my money seems like the safest choice here since this 'bug' is a deal breaker for me. If only my old C-200 had better capacitors
