HelloI am trying to configure the master slides and I am running into some trouble. I have found some posts about this, but they were very old, so I thought that maybe things have changed.
What I would like to do is change the layouts of the master slide. For example, in the layout that has two contents, I would like to change it so instead of one next to the other, the appear one above the other. Something like
TITLE
Content1
Content2
I managed to get it to create index_vtt.m3u8 files that contain the subtitles, but it doesn't want to add the stream to the master playlist.I'm new to this so I don't fully understand how the whole ffmpeg works (I'm mainly just trying out bunch of resources I found on the net)
I think you need to use the -hls_flags option with single_file to make sure the subtitles are included in a single .vtt file, and you also need to specify the -var_stream_map option to map the video, audio, and subtitle streams to the HLS playlists.
Now, I would like to use the outline feature. Unfortunately, I cannot format the second line in the master slide, as size and color are only for the entire title area. Neither changing to subtitle is working for me.
In my case, both title and subtitle are part of the title area. However, if I mark the second line and select subtitle, the first one changes to subtitle as well. If I change the first one back to title, the second line is title again. Oh, I should add that I am using version 3.5.7.2
I Have a Question my Technical Director Asked me if She could use a master but for only certain subs? I don't think there is a way without using the GM but I Thought I Would ask here. This Is on a Ion Light board.
While an Inhibitive Sub is not technically a master over certain subs, but rather a master over certain channels (think small master rather than Grand Master), such an Inhibitive Sub might solve your problem.
The current version of Media Center Master is 2.14. Version 1.32 has been used for many the examples in the wiki, so beware that some of the options may be expanded or look different than various screen shots.

If you need subtitles for your media, it couldn't be easier to do so. There are several ways to do this, however before you get started, be sure that you have a program and/or the necessary codecs installed. Subtitles get downloaded as a separate file usually with the extention ".srt".
If you want all of your titles to have subtitles go to the Application menu, Settings and Preferences, Movies tab, and check the box that says "Download subtitles from Subscene.com". Select the language you would like. Please note that Subscene.com may or may not have the subtitle in the language you are looking for. You may also check the box for Using OpenSubtitles.org as a backup if you wish, although it is a little slow. If necessary you may also go directly to
opensubtitles.org or similar websites to download what you are looking for manually. Be sure to rename the .srt file exactly the same as your media minus the extention. Example: Movie.avi should have a subtitle called movie.srt
mpv is a media player based on MPlayer and mplayer2. It supports a wide variety of videofile formats, audio and video codecs, and subtitle types. Special input URLtypes are available to read input from a variety of sources other than diskfiles. Depending on platform, a variety of different video and audio outputmethods are supported.
mpv has a fully configurable, command-driven control layer which allows youto control mpv using keyboard, mouse, or remote control (there is noLIRC support - configure remotes as input devices instead).
(The following keybindings open a selector in the console that lets you choosefrom a list of items by typing part of the desired item and/or by navigatingthem with keybindings: Down and Ctrl+n go down, Up and Ctrl+p goup, Page down and Ctrl+f scroll down one page, and Page up andCtrl+b scroll up one page.)
Command line arguments starting with - are interpreted as options,everything else as filenames or URLs. All options except flag options (orchoice options which include yes) require a parameter in the form--option=value.
One exception is the lone - (without anything else), which means media datawill be read from stdin. Also, -- (without anything else) will make theplayer interpret all following arguments as filenames, even if they start with-. (To play a file named -, you need to use ./-.)
The --option=value syntax is not strictly enforced, and the alternativelegacy syntax -option value and -option=value will also work. This ismostly for compatibility with MPlayer. Using these should be avoided. Theirsemantics can change any time in the future.
For example, the alternative syntax will consider an argument following theoption a filename. mpv -fs no will attempt to play a file named no,because --fs is a flag option that requires no parameter. If an optionchanges and its parameter becomes optional, then a command line using thealternative syntax will break.
Until mpv 0.31.0, there was no difference whether an option started with --or a single -. Newer mpv releases strictly expect that you pass the optionvalue after a =. For example, before mpv --log-file f.txt would writea log to f.txt, but now this command line fails, as --log-file expectsan option value, and f.txt is simply considered a normal file to be played(as in mpv f.txt).
It gets more complicated if the suboption parser is involved. The suboptionparser puts several options into a single string, and passes them to acomponent at once, instead of using multiple options on the level of thecommand line.
This passes option1 and option3 to the foo filter, with option2as flag (implicitly option2=yes), and adds a bar filter after that. Ifan option contains spaces or characters like , or :, you need to quotethem:
The [...] form of quotes wraps everything between [ and ]. It'suseful with shells that don't interpret these characters in the middle ofan argument (like bash). These quotes are balanced (since mpv 0.9.0): the [and ] nest, and the quote terminates on the last ] that has no matching[ within the string. (For example, [a[b]c] results in a[b]c.)
Suboptions passed to the client API are also subject to escaping. Usingmpv_set_option_string() is exactly like passing --name=data to thecommand line (but without shell processing of the string). Some optionssupport passing values in a more structured way instead of flat strings, andcan avoid the suboption parsing mess. For example, --vf supportsMPV_FORMAT_NODE, which lets you pass suboptions as a nested data structureof maps and arrays.
Some care must be taken when passing arbitrary paths and filenames to mpv. Forexample, paths starting with - will be interpreted as options. Likewise,if a path contains the sequence ://, the string before that might beinterpreted as protocol prefix, even though :// can be part of a legalUNIX path. To avoid problems with arbitrary paths, you should be sure thatabsolute paths passed to mpv start with /, and prefix relative paths with./.
For paths passed to suboptions, the situation is further complicated by theneed to escape special characters. To work this around, the path can beadditionally wrapped in the fixed-length syntax, e.g. %n%string_of_length_n(see above).
Additionally, any file-local option changed at runtime is reset when the currentfile stops playing. If option --c is changed during playback offile2.mkv, it is reset when advancing to file3.mkv. This only affectsfile-local options. The option --a is never reset here.
Some options which store lists of option values can have action suffixes. Forexample, the --display-tags option takes a ,-separated list of tags, butthe option also allows you to append a single tag with --display-tags-append,and the tag name can for example contain a literal , without the need forescaping.
A key/value list is a list of key/value string pairs. In programming languages,this type of data structure is often called a map or a dictionary. The ordernormally does not matter, although in some cases the order might matter.
If you want to pass a value without interpreting it for escapes or ,, it isrecommended to use the -append variant. When using libmpv, prefer usingMPV_FORMAT_NODE_MAP; when using a scripting backend or the JSON IPC, use anappropriate structured data type.
Although some operations allow specifying multiple items, using this is stronglydiscouraged and deprecated, except for -set. There is a chance thatoperations like -add and -pre will work like -append and accept asingle, unescaped item only (so the , separator will not be interpreted andis passed on as part of the value).
User-specific options override system-wide options and options given on thecommand line override both. The syntax of the configuration files isoption=value. Everything after a # is considered a comment. Options thatwork without values can be enabled by setting them to yes and disabled bysetting them to no, and if the value is omitted, yes is implied. Evensuboptions can be specified in this way.
This is done like with command line options. A config entry can be quoted with", ', as well as with the fixed-length syntax (%n%) mentionedbefore. This is like passing the exact contents of the quoted string as acommand line option. C-style escapes are currently _not_ interpreted on thislevel, although some options do this manually (this is a mess and shouldprobably be changed at some point). The shell is not involved here, so optionvalues only need to be quoted to escape # anywhere in the value, ",' or % at the beginning of the value, and leading and trailingwhitespace.
To ease working with different configurations, profiles can be defined in theconfiguration files. A profile starts with its name in square brackets,e.g. [my-profile]. All following options will be part of the profile. Adescription (shown by --profile=help) can be defined with theprofile-desc option. To end the profile, start another one or use theprofile name default to continue with normal options.
