could you explain this behaviour

Hi, i had subtitled a movie with a saved ass file from aegisub software using Ffmpeg commands.
the process went on and result file plays beautifully with ass format of video,audio, and subtitles.
I save the same to a pendrive and then play the same with the vlc media player.
Now the hard coded subtitles show somewhat different from the actual i saw, playing with the computer.
In pc, the formation of font is correct, whereas in playing the file copied to pendrive, the letters are not , as it should be .
why this behaviour, and what is the fix, that you could give.
It is hardcoded using ffmpeg command with ass file.
i will enclose the snapshot of both the file

moreover, when i check the codec, it says as ssa, and not ass.
But ffmpeg does not ask for ssa file , and it has converted using the ass file
i wil enclose the screen shot in my next post

Hi, please see the snapshots taken using vlc media player
one is different from others. But both files are the same in different locations.
Does it then not hard coded to change like this.

Hi, in continuation of my above posts, i tried and i did notice, that the vlc played the mp4 file with the .ass file, i inadvertantly stored in the same folder as the video. When i removed the .ass file, then the video behaved , in the same way as in the pen drive. I mean, the ffmpeg command did processed but without the correct font, eventhough i have chosen the font in my ass file.
the ffmpeg formula i used in the process
ffmpeg -i video.avi -vf "ass=subtitle.ass" out.avi
i just substitued my files in the formula
is anything more to be added in the formula
I also came to know, that vlc media player would pick the srt and ass file, if it is in the same folder.
just i removed it to check and the fact is that i got a non readable subtitle give me solution
