Thanks for the report. I've made a renewed call for translations here:

http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/translators-l/2010-October/001184.html

Please continue to report any issues. We'll import any new
translations and fixes after the translation deadline, October 15.

If anyone wants to volunteer with some process clean-up,
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Timed_Text could use some
love (and the actual TimedText UI should ideally have some JavaScript
goodness to add translations).
