Maybe I'm the only one that prefers subtitles over the black bands instead than over the picture...
... but I'd like to have them ALL over the black, and not "protruding" over the image... I thought to move up slightly the picture, so the resulting height will be 132 pixels top black bar, 796 pixels image, 152 pixels bottom black bar... what do you think? Or should I leave the image centered, and subtitles "invade" it a bit sometime?
