still missing load from file, otherwise this is available in master (to be 4.7)

is this bug closed or we still can't load external subtitles from phonon based video players?
Comment 4 rockonthemoonfm 2013-07-05 14:20:39 UTC
i still can't load external subtitles from dragon player. 
What's the state of art of phonon backends regarding this much needed feature?

(I really miss a mplayer backend):

feel free to implement it.
Comment 6 Harald Sitter 2013-09-11 14:07:13 UTC
Load from file also available now.

Font settings are only partially backed by VLC because of issues with the freetype renderer.
