Issues with Captions/srt subtitles fonts

Post by Sombre13 »

Hello,

Whenever I change subtitle fonts on added new srt file it uses Arial fonts on my new VF generated package. In xml file shows like this: <LoadFont Id="0_Font1" URI="font_0.ttf"/> I've tried numerous different fonts ant it always leaves me with default Arial font. I hope someone can help if I am doing something wrong. Dcp o-matic version 2.16.50.
P.S Color changes, outline, or font sizes works with no issues. Caption positioning it seems is correct on dp2k-32b projector.

Hello,

How are you checking the font in the VFs you are making? On this Barco projector?

Are you setting the font from the .srt file somehow, or in the DoM interface?
