@section dvdsub
This codec encodes the bitmap subtitle format that is used in DVDs.
Typically they are stored in VOBSUB file pairs (*.idx + *.sub),
and they can also be used in Matroska files.
@subsection Options
@table @option
@item even_rows_fix
When set to 1, enable a work-around that makes the number of pixel rows
even in all subtitles. This fixes a problem with some players that
cut off the bottom row if the number is odd. The work-around just adds
a fully transparent row if needed. The overhead is low, typically
one byte per subtitle on average.
By default, this work-around is disabled.
