Only documented in the code. When libav* from ffmpeg supports
ASS/SSA, so too will we. Myth pretty much supports every broadly used
subtitle format out there in trunk. In fact, the only one I can think
of off the top of my head that it does not support is this one. If
you instead use a raw text, PGS, or DVD bitmapped subtitle type when
creating your MKV, it will work fine.
