SSA and Font Type Question

Hey all got a simple question. I'm using SubStationAlpha to change font size, color, face, ect. to a SubRip file I created. All goes well but when I use certain fonts type (e.g. TT-TrueType or A-dunno what it stands for. O-Open Type is the only font type that works) the \N is seen as text and isn't actually read to create a new line. For example the .ssa file will have the following text at a particular timestamp: hello \nhow are you this display as it should in SSA regardless if the font type is TT, A, or O: hello how are you The issues when I preview an avi through gknot when editing my .avs to add the .ssa sub file. If the font type is anything except OpenType-O it comes out wrong in the .avs preview through gknot without a new line and looks like the following: hello \nhow are you I don't know if SSA is limited to the font type its using or I might be doing something wrong, or maybe when virtual dub reads and encodes the .avs it will create the right line breaks. Please shed some light on this. Thanks. PrinceAli0

Hi Again- In Sub Station Alpha, go Edit-Replace-Search For \n-check the Case Sensitive Box-Replace With \N. Leave everything else at default. Save, and you have your line breaks back.

Let me know if this works, because I think that I have tried that and forced line breaks \N dont do it for me either. I thought that I was the only one. Curious to see how this handles on your end.
