i like big _subtitles and i cannot lie!
- My other brothers can't hear right
  
  Then when a girl talks in an itty bitty way
  
  We found the thing for the case, subs get sprung
(‿!‿) ԅ(≖‿≖ԅ)
@kdenlive @kde I wonder, does it also support the British equivalent .arse ?
- @kdenlive @RTheren Advanced RubStation Elpha... wait...
@kdenlive @kde Will there be an easy way to back that ASS up?

asking for a friend
peak title
@kdenlive Ah yes, good ol' Advance SubStation Alpha subtitles. Been a while since I've seen them around, they were really common for fansubs
- @csolisr @kdenlive @kde they're still by far the most common subtitle format
  
  Wouldn't that be SRT?
- Man those were different times. I remember my brother using Aegisub and the stuff they could do with it, mind blowing.
  
  @einlander Fun fact: the developer of #Aegisub, Rodrigo Braz Monteiro, ended up building the engine for #Wargroove 1 and 2.

All about dat ass? Freaky today, aren't we
@kdenlive @kde oh god why would you do that to yourself. ASS is a format that needs to die, not become even more popular.

It's also silly to support the unspecified proprietary ASS format before supporting the actual industry standard for subtitles TTML/ISMC.
- @justjanne @kdenlive @kde
  .ass is still one of the most human readable subtitle (alongside with .srt).
  
  On other hand, .ttml is just a nightmare for casual fansubber.
  At least, that is what happen in fansub culture in my country.
  
  @techpengu @kdenlive @kde If you want human readable, use VTT. If you use ASS, that's usually to add pixel-perfect 3D animations.
  
  Also, to author VTT, SRT and TTML easily you can use e.g. the free edition of Davinci Resolve.
@kdenlive@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social okay but jokes aside this is a genuinely nice feature to have
@kdenlive
ASStounding!
@kde
@kdenlive @kde Get that ASS team 👏
@kdenlive @kde This news makes me very happy! I've specifically been wanting better subtitling since I started using Kdenlive because creating decadent subtitles is fun for me. Thank you for implementing it!
Wow nice ass support is coming
@kdenlive @kde freaky Kdenlive update
