Subtitles tab problem

Hi,
The subtitles tabs are behaving badly ever since I started to use this software (since 0.2.4). The problem is easy to reproduce:
1. Set the first subtitle file with ISO-8859-8 and the language Hebrew and some font.
2. Set the second subtitle file with the same parameters but with a different font.
3. Go back to the Options Sub1 tab. You can see that the settings are not correctly remembered by the application (specifically - it reverts back to English with the wrong encoding).
If you try this with 3 subtitles it's even a bigger mess. The more you play around with the tabs, the more messed up it gets. Eventually you may get giberrish subtitles in your movie, as the spumux.xml file contains the wrong encoding settings (even if you managed to get the tabs to display the settings you wanted!!).
Please fix this.
Thanks!

Hi reburn,
Thanks for your replies.
I can't understand how this is not reproducable. Maybe it's the way I handle the font/language selection. Anyway, I'm at work now but when I'll get back home I'll post specific instructions on how I see this problem.
Thanks again.

p.s.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling before. I actually do that every time a new version is out (I don't uninstall AviSynth, though, but I doubt it matters)

OK, here are the exact steps to reproduce this problem:
0. Start Avi2Dvd (fresh start).
1. Go to the subtitles configuration (step 4)
2. Click the button "Subtitle 1"
3. Choose an .srt file.
4. In the "Options Sub1" tab, change the settings to ISO8859-8, "iw HEBREW", arial.ttf, 34.
5. Click the button "Subtitle 2"
6. Choose _the same_ .srt file.
7. (the subtitles tab control should automatically switch to "Options Sub2".
8. Change the settings to ISO8859-9, "iw HEBREW", _times.ttf_, 34.
9. Click "Options Sub1". Don't do anything there.
10. Click "Options Sub2".
As you can see, after step 10, the options for "Options Sub2" have changed. This is just one problem. There are even more (like minimizing to the system tray also changes the settings sometimes, but I can't tell exactly when).
did you load a movie before

Hi reburn,
Thanks again.
Either we're not using the same software (again, I'm using Avi2Dvd 0.2.7) or you haven't tried the steps that I described.
Even if I go through steps 1-3 and then follow the stages I described in step 4, the bug is still there. I even called some friends and asked them to reproduce it (and they did, successfully).
I must say this is getting very annoying, as I am only trying to contribute to this software by reporting bugs. I would fix the problem myself if the source code was available.
Try going through steps 1-3 first and then follow the stages I described for step 4. It really doesn't matter.
trustfm, can you verify this bug the way I described it?
Thanks.
