#11855 closed Bug Report - General (fixed)

null character at the end of text captions

Reported by: rjmorris.list@… Owned by: Jim Stichnoth
Priority: minor Milestone: 0.26.2
Component: MythTV - Captions Version: 0.26-fixes
Severity: medium Keywords:
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description

When displaying text captions in videos created by Handbrake, MythTV prints an empty rectangle, representing a non-printable character, at the end of each caption. Inspection of the log messages suggests that the non-printable character is a null character (0x00). It is unclear whether the captions in the video file are stored incorrectly or whether MythTV makes an error when reading them.

Can you try the attached patch? It's against 0.27 / Master but I expect it should apply to 0.26.
