| | 283 | == Implement full support for 3GPP Timed Text (movtext, QuickTime) subtitles == |
| | 284 | |
| | 285 | The standard subtitle format used in MP4 containers is 3GPP timed text, as defined in 3GPP TS 26.245. It is the only subtitle format supported in Apple's media players on OS X and iOS, and the only format that's part of the mpeg4 standard. As such it is important for FFmpeg to support the format as fully as possible. Currently, it supports a limited subset of the format without any rich text formatting or the ability to position text on the screen. For this project of the goal would be to implement complete support for these features and have the implementation fully reviewed and merged into FFmpeg. |
