Hey Andreas!

I checked with the DVD Studio Pro folks and the answer from 2 years ago still stands. We don't publish the format for those files.

As you may have found, these files are (mostly) easily reverse- engineered, but will expose the reader to DVDSP internals with all the responsibilities/risks that entails.

Best of luck,
Helena

Hi all,

Though most of my XML questions have been related to FCP here is one for DVDSP.
With DVDSP you can save you can save "item descriptions" which are some kind of XML. I can read (with the help from a cool guy in Canada) the subtitles which are encoded in quite a strange way - that's my personal opinion and as always I may be wrong.
Going thru the entries of the subtitles it always says:
<key>MostCompatibleStringEncoding</key>
<string>Western (Mac OS Roman)</string>
which seem be not a value which should be considered as it obviously is set for any text regardless of the type of text like arabic, hebrew, punjabi, french, german.


Are there some docs about that meanwhile?
I know I asked that (or a similar question) two years ago and got as answer: cool idea, but figure out by your own. But maybe things have changed.


Thanks
Andreas

P.S.
I'm a paying developer member and never used my "free questions" - does the above qualify for that? :)
