» Fixed some problems with Track bar as sometimes during rewinding or stepping displayed wrong frame numbers.
 
DownloadVersion 1.3 beta available:

Version 1.3 (13th May 2001)
 
» First public release. Since it's not for me alone anymore, I added hints for buttons and help file.
» Added movie player! Well, it's only default mediaplayer from Borland C++ Builder™, so it acts sometimes strange, but it makes translating quicker. Video is choppy on a slower systems (K6-2 450), the player does not have DirectDraw support (or something like that).
» Video is displayed in default window, so you may need to resize it in order to fit the video resolution. Also, it displays in 100%, so if you have standard DivX movie (like 640x360), it takes a lot of desktop space, unless you work in 1200x1024 resolution :)
» Trackbar only allows seeking in the movie when movie is stopped. It's only programming problem, so in future versions this will probably change.
Version 1.3 unavailable.

Version 1.2 (April 2001)
 
» Finally, I altered the loading process. Now, you can load virtually any file in the translator and it shouldn't crash (with emphasis on shouldn't). The aim was to enable loading also damaged (somebody forgot to put } in the line or something similar) subtitle. The disadvantage is, that you are not so drastically informed about the error in subtitle file. Also, the other tags from MicroDVD Player like color or font are supported (well, not supported, but program can handle it).
» Added some shortcut keys.
» Fixed the bug which removed last line in translated subtitle upon saving.
» Some changes in graphics interface.
Version 1.2 unavailable.

Version 1.1 (October 2000)
 
» Well, one great add-on was implemented. When you try to close the application and you did not save the translated file, the program now gives you chance to save it before exit.
» Added command "go to line number" so you can immediately jump to line where you stopped last time.
» Minor changes: removed last empty row in grid, added option to replace start/end positions with ones from translated file upon opening.
» Somehow, removing the empty row in grid screwed saving translated subtitle and cut off last line. Actually, I did not notice it for a long time.
Version 1.1 unavailable.

Version 1.0 (May 2000)
 
» First functional version. It was intended for my personal use only.
» Had only basic features: open original subtitle, open and save translated subtitle. Oh, and almost forgot, exit.
» Status bar could display number of lines in file and actual line.
» The subtitle had to be strictly without any errors and all nonessential stuff. Otherwise the program would crash.
Version 1.0 unavailable.
