Feature Request: Set subtitle color with RGB values

Post by Nemesh »

More and more Blu-Ray and 4K subtitles have their own color.
Often it's a light grey color, but sometimes a more darker grey color.
For example with Star Wars 4K R:181, G:181, B:181
Personally I use R:231, G:231, B:231 for Blu-Ray's if the BD's has no own color and has a white subtitlecolor: R:255, G:255, B:255.
Then a slightly grey color is much more pleasant to watch, hence the: R:231, G:231, B:231
To identify the color I make a screen-snapshot with the subtitle, anfd save it as a jpg file.
Then I go to Color Picker, load the image and with the corsshairs I select the inner part of a letter to get the subtitle value.
As can been seen in my two exaples, the color is given in RGB-values.
However I can't use the values in ConvertXtoHD and ConvertXtoDVD.
Is it possible to to build this feature into both programs?
With regards,

Hi there,
The feature is already there (even if, I have to admit, not really easy to find)
(see attached)
Cheers,

Thanks for the reply Maggie.
That was the only place I didn't look.
Works like a charm.
