Comment:

 I recently upgraded my frontend when the new Mythbuntu fixes repository
 became available. Since this fix is supposed to be backported, I think it
 should be fixed in my version (0.20.1+fixes14205), but I still see this
 behaviour.

 Symptoms: If I have the overscan playback percentages both set to 0,
 everything is fine. If I set them to 2% (which is what I want to use),
 there is about a half-second pause every time a subtitle is displayed on
 the DVD I am trying to watch (Inuyasha series 2, if that should be
 important!).

 Another entirely unrelated bug has been successfully fixed by the new
 install so I am confident I'm really running the new version. Also, the
 pauses seem notably smaller since I installed this new version, but it's
 still unwatchable.

 I wonder, when the scaling factor is so small, is it even worth performing
 the scaling on the subtitles? Maybe the subtitle scaling could be skipped
 altogether if both overscan percentages are less than, say, 5? Just an
 idea, I realise it's not really the Right Way.
