Hm, I thought at least "pause" was supposed to work; I don't own a PS3,
sorry. FF/RW is a bit tricky due to the transcoding, depending on which
method the PS3 actually supports, that might work in 0.22.

There's an alternate MPEG2 encoding preset with improved quality but
also quite high CPU consumption in rygel's git repository:

https://git.gnome.org/browse/rygel/tree/examples/presets/avenc_mpeg2video.prs

Just replace the original avenc_mpeg2video.prs file with that.

"Internal" subtitles are a feature request, unfortunately not very high
up currently.
