I am having problems with subtitles:
- vdr 1.6.0 - vdr-1.5.18-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff - vdr-1.6.0-truecolor-compile_fixes.diff - reelbox plugin
The subtitles appear 6-10 seconds too early, which is really annoying. Tested the recordings on a vdr 1.6.0 + FF without the patches and the subtitles were displayed correctly. I imagine it has something to do with the syncearly, but can't say for sure. Can I somehow disable the syncearly part of the patches to verify that this indeed is the problem. ( I need the patches because I can't compile vdr + reelbox plugin without them )

This isn't caused by syncearly, this occurs 'cause the buffers of the HD-extension are not taken into account yet. The missing lines are in dvbsubtitles.c, around line 767, there you can read: "TODO sync on PTS? are there actually devices that don't deliver an STC?" Yes, there is such a device... ;-)
Nevertheless, this will probably be fixed quiet soon...

The STC is already written into the shm area in regular intervals (after each received packet). It is used to emulate a somewhat synchronous STC on the PC for the AV-sync via mainboard audio.

The subtitles and ttxtsubs are in sync when watching live... but The same problem with too early exists on recordings.
vdr 1.7.0 with reelbox plugin 9044: VDR-Extensions-Patch-62/vdr-1.7.0_extensions.diff DR-Extensions-Patch-62/vdr-1.7.0-ext_h264.diff vdr170-ext-h264-rmm-svn8858-patch.diff
There's a ReplayDelay option on ttxtsubs, but is it possible to get the (customized) delay also for the subtitles as well?

Just finished the clean installation of vdr-1.7.0 with same patches: vdr-1.7.0 with reelbox plugin 9044 vdr-1.7.0-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup vdr170-h264-rmm-svn8858-patch
The subtitles and ttxtsubs appears ~ 6 seconds too early. I can live with the ttxtsubs, because of the option ReplayDelay (5000), but watching the recordings with subtitles is quite annoying..
The recordings with ttxtsubs and subtitles are from Thor (S1.0W) (dvb-s/dvb-s2) and local Finnish (dvb-c) broadcaster Welho. (Canal Digital and Yle stuff...)
I'll try to get a sample recordings uploaded somewhere tomorrow.

I've tried to record 10mins samples from few channels other than I'm normally watching (with dvb-subtitles). It seems to me that recordings from some channels have problems you've reported, from other channels recordings are replayed without problems.
The delay (time dvb-subtitles is displayed earlier) seems to be 0 at beginning od such recording and is increased and within 10 mins it reaches up to 6 secs.
I'm not sure as I don't have too much time to test but channels with problems have only one dvb-subtitles stream and are dvb-s. I didn't found dvb-s2 channel with sync subtitles problem. But normally I'm using NatGeo (UPC, 19.2E) which is broadcasting also dvb-s and only one dvb-subtitles stream and no problems is there.
So it is not necessary to upload the problematic recording for me (but maybe someone from reelmutimedia will be interested in). I already have such.
