has anyone ever gotten subtitle filter to work?

Oh, wait, don't bother. I was able to update my older Mac to Sierra. I'll test subtitling on it tomorrow.

I wasn't able to update it previously because the Bootcamp partition, where I ran Avidemux on Windows to get the subtitling, was preventing OS update. But since the subtitle filter's been fixed for mac, I deleted the Bootcamp partition, got a whole lot of hard drive back for my use, and updated to Sierra.

After updating my other Mac to Sierra, I've verified that subtitling works as expected, so I withdraw my request for an El Capitan version.

One oddity: the font size on the Mac size has to be set to double what it is on the Windows side in order to get the same sized subtitles.
