Actually the problem that VLSub hangs as described in #847559 is caused
by using the old plugin version that is currently in vlc-plugin-base.

The version in vlc-plugin-vlsub contains actual version that works ok. I
am currently using it I just need to be careful to run the right plugin.

Any way if you decide to keep VLSub as part of vlc-plugin-base shouldn't
vlc-plugin-vlsub be canceled/removed?

Thanks,
