Without color-information

Warum?

With color information:

1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:02,720
&gt;Überhaupt nicht.

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,200
<font color="#ffff00">Warum?</font>

Probably due to 763972ca4b/src/lib_ccx/telxcc.c (L173)

I'm reporting this as e.g. MPC-HC and WDTV Media Player set-topbox are showing > as-is and not as >.

Yeah, you're right that it's most likely caused by that conversion table. The question is however, in how far this is posing an issue... Looks like it's been in there since the initial git, so maybe @cfsmp3 can give some insight why it's in there :)

Unfortunately petrkutalek removed the original repo, and thus the commit-history.

But I hunted down a fork of the original repo, and I found the reason for this conversion: searchengine-mode.

Is that relevant when the subtitle-files aren't being indexed and only used with mediaplayers?

Probably we should make the escaping optional, in general. But not for
0.78, maybe as a 0.79 goal :-)
