--- Comment #1 from Ron <[email protected]> ---
Fixing QTextStream to output UTF-8 on windows is a correct change, because ASS
should always be valid UTF-8 according to the nearest things to an actual spec
for it.

However:

I don't think we should be exposing MLT implementation details in the subtitle
editing interface.  That should purely operate in the ASS space and do only,
but all of, what ASS supports, because it's quite valid for the user to have
multiple (independent) subtitle tracks for each timeline sequence, and to embed
all of them in the rendered video for the player to select at play time.  In
which case they likely don't get rendered by MLT at all.

If you *really* want to be able to configure font search paths, that should
probably be something in the general configuration where we do that sort of
stuff - but even then I'd really question why you don't install fonts you want
to use in the place(s) where all things that look for fonts already look for
them, otherwise you're just going to be playing whack-a-mole reconfiguring
everything that breaks because it doesn't find them.
