Parsing .SRT Subtitle Files

[MuddyMole]

Made to help another user, and uploading here just in case it's useful to anyone else:

It has not been thoroughly tested, and since CF2.5 seems very limited when it comes to displaying formatted text, it just strips the formatting tags out of the subtitles instead.

Awesome!
I was going to make it but I got very busy with some paid work that I have to finish...
Love your examples, always so well commented and organized

The only concern tho is that it's tied to framerate, and SRT files are made for different amounts of frames per second (which I'm not sure if it even specifies?)
But adding DeltaTime to it would be good.

That's just so I didn't have to include a movie file in the example. Obviously in actual use, you would just retrieve the current time from whatever media playback object you're using - eg. Video Total Time( "AVI" ) or GetPosition( "Direct Show" ).

Yesterday i'm also start to make something similar but i have a little bit of problem to convert the time of subtitles to a time value, this is what i do till now...

Off course, the MuddyMole stuff is better than this, but i wanna try to finish in my way just for fun, if someone can help with this i appreciate!

EDIT
I found the way to convert the string in to time value, so i'm ok with this

I finish my example, i think it works good but is not commented and maybe is not so easy to understand.

Very nice example @MuddyMole

Great works @ciaciosacchetti

Is it compatible with Android, iOS too?

[ciaciosacchetti]

I have to try, but i think yes!
Monday if i have time i will test for Android

Thanks. I'm wondering if mobiles read .srt format or not.

Hi all, for fun I tried reprogramming the example from scratch and everything works fine. I also added some graphics and added a level with comments (I used google translate, I hope it's understandable).
Anyway, everything works fine but on android the subtitle text is not visible at the beggining, but it becomes visible if a new subtitle file is loading from the top bar. I hope you can help me to solve this glitch... Hello and happy new year to all!
