I find that when a subtitle has 3 lines, the player will cut off the middle line. For example, if the spoken lines are as follows in the SRT file:
00:00:16,450 –> 00:00:18,086
What kind of carnival
will cost you that
much money?
Then the player will completely cut out the middle line and on screen the following line will appear:
What kind of carnivmuch money?
