ASSA Resolution Resampler
Resample ASSA subtitle styles and positions from one video resolution to another, so subtitles look correct at a different resolution.
Menu: ASSA tools → Change resolution...
How to Use
- Open a subtitle file in ASS/SSA format.
- Go to ASSA tools → Change resolution… to open the resampler dialog.
- The Source resolution is read from the subtitle header (PlayResX / PlayResY).
- Set the Target resolution — if a video is loaded, it is used as the default.
- Choose which elements to resample (margins, font sizes, positions, drawings).
- Click OK to apply the resampling.

Resolution set automatically from the video
With Options → Settings → ASSA set to update the resolution automatically, loading a video (or converting to ASS/SSA) writes the video’s dimensions into PlayResX / PlayResY, and the styles are resampled to match.
That resampling only applies to a subtitle whose header already named a resolution - a file authored for another picture size. A header without PlayResX / PlayResY is the built-in one, or your default style storage written into it (an OCR result takes that route): there, only the small built-in font sizes (25 and below) are lifted to the video height, and your font size, margins, outline and shadow are kept exactly as configured.
