### Zhen Dao Ge 枕刀歌 2021 (Season 1 & Special)
**Raws:** Tencent rip
**Translation/Subtitles:** Hall_of_C
**Video:** MPEG4 Video (H264) 1920x1080 25fps [V: h264 high L4.0, yuv420p, 1920x1080 [default]]
**Audio:** AAC 48000Hz stereo [A: SoundHandler (aac lc, 48000 Hz, stereo) [default]]
**Subtitles:** English, English Overlay [S: ass [default]] (softsubs)
The first season has 12 episodes, the last two are extra stories on a few of the supporting characters. The special covers the "incident" from a different perspective.
We have also tried something new with this release by adding a subtitle overlay option that covers the Chinese hardsubs. Let us know if this overlay option is preferred.

I really like the "english overlay ass" with opaque spaces to hide the chinese characters. IMHO feel the "default" text size in the "overlay" needs to be slightly larger to increase read ability during conversations (maybe 66 vs 50). The "song" text can be left as is since the lyric timing provides more duration. Overall great job really appreciate it.
Sidenote: if are you encoding 1080 with hc chinese inside the video frame (i.e. 1080x818), please consider not cropping the black bars or adding them back to provide clean space for the english subs...Again thank you very for this encode.
Thanks for the feedback! We’ll take note about the font size in the future.
For the video itself, we don’t and will not modify raws (by cropping, for e.g) to suit the subs, we try to play around with what we have and Zhen Dao Ge was really nice for this overlay experiment because of the original position of the hardsub :)
