We found the thing for the case, subs get sprung

@kdenlive @kde I wonder, does it also support the British equivalent .arse ?

[-] csolisr@hub.azkware.net 2 points 3 months ago

@kdenlive @RTheren Advanced RubStation Elpha... wait...

@kdenlive @kde Will there be an easy way to back that ASS up?

@kdenlive Ah yes, good ol' Advance SubStation Alpha subtitles. Been a while since I've seen them around, they were really common for fansubs

[-] raptor85@mastodon.gamedev.place 4 points 3 months ago

@csolisr @kdenlive @kde they're still by far the most common subtitle format

[-] PureTryOut@lemmy.kde.social 1 points 3 months ago

Wouldn't that be SRT?

[-] einlander@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Man those were different times. I remember my brother using Aegisub and the stuff they could do with it, mind blowing.

[-] csolisr@hub.azkware.net 1 points 3 months ago

@einlander Fun fact: the developer of #Aegisub, Rodrigo Braz Monteiro, ended up building the engine for #Wargroove 1 and 2.

All about dat ass? Freaky today, aren't we

[-] eggbreakerdotexe@transfem.social 5 points 3 months ago

@kdenlive@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social okay but jokes aside this is a genuinely nice feature to have

@kdenlive @kde oh god why would you do that to yourself. ASS is a format that needs to die, not become even more popular.

It's also silly to support the unspecified proprietary ASS format before supporting the actual industry standard for subtitles TTML/ISMC.

[-] techpengu@mastodon.social 2 points 3 months ago

@justjanne @kdenlive @kde
.ass is still one of the most human readable subtitle (alongside with .srt).

On other hand, .ttml is just a nightmare for casual fansubber.
At least, that is what happen in fansub culture in my country.

@techpengu @kdenlive @kde If you want human readable, use VTT. If you use ASS, that's usually to add pixel-perfect 3D animations.

Also, to author VTT, SRT and TTML easily you can use e.g. the free edition of Davinci Resolve.

@kdenlive @kde Get that ASS team 👏

[-] jeanv@mastodon.gamedev.place 3 points 3 months ago

@kdenlive @kde This news makes me very happy! I've specifically been wanting better subtitling since I started using Kdenlive because creating decadent subtitles is fun for me. Thank you for implementing it!

[-] ColdWater@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

Wow nice ass support is coming

[-] PenisDuckCuck9001@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 3 months ago

Hell yeah. I love ass and I love open source software.

[-] lightyisreal@mastodon.social 2 points 3 months ago
