Software and TAPs for Topfield PVRs

UK Subtitle

Download version 1.9 (updated 05/02/2009)

This TAP allows a single button press to access the subtitle menu or a single button press to toggle subtitles on and off.

Installation

Just place in your ProgramFiles or Auto Start folder. UK Subtitle automatically creates a configuration file in the ProgramFiles folder, or Settings folder if it exists.

Configuration

Pressing Exit will bring up the UK Subtitle configuration menu. Options are:

• Subtitle key. If you are running Remote Extender, you can select List separately from TV/Radio.
• Auto Toggle. Switches subtitles on and off without showing the Toppy's Subtitles menu.
• Status Message. Length of time to display the subtitles on/off message. This option does nothing if Auto Toggle is switched off.
• Status Message Position X. Horizontal screen position. Can be set to Centered or 0 - 558.
• Status Message Position Y. Vertical screen position. Can be set to Centered or 0 - 546.

Note that extreme values for the status message may be clipped by your TV. This is normal and most TVs will clip the edges of the picture by up to 10% of the screen size.

TAP Commander and TSR Commander Integration

If you have TAP Commander or TSRCommander installed in either the ProgramFiles or Auto Start folders, UK Subtitle will assume you want to use the Commander menu for configuring. This means that if Commander is not running, UK Subtitle will not grab the Exit key (useful if you want to use the Exit key for interactive text).

Known problems

• When using the auto toggle option, if a subtitle is onscreen when subtitles are toggled off, it may remain onscreen for a few seconds.
