This is quite correct, DVDs use four colour bitmaps for subtitles and often they are too small to read. I don't know of any decent subtitle rippers for Linux but if you have a Windows PC you can use subrip to OCR the bitmaps to a srt file and save this with the video files, not sure exactly where for a DVD, you can use the encoding server to rip the dvd to an avi file. mplayer can read these and display them with the video and you can then set the size. I don't know about xine as I prefer mplayer.
