View Full Version : Playlist format that specifies videos and subs?

I've got AVI files stored in one location and SRT subtitle files in another. I'd like to create a sort of playlist file that will tell MPC to load the video plus the subs.

A Windows BAT file could do this but that's no so elegant. Is there a playlist format that allows you to specify a video and 1 or more additional subtitle files to load?

I have a similar organization of files, and use the mpcplaylist for playback. Create for example "myplaylist.mpcpl":

MPCPLAYLIST
1,type,0
1,filename,c:\videos\clip1.avi
1,subtitle,c:\subs\sub1.srt
2,type,0
2,filename,c:\videos\clip2.avi
2,subtitle,c:\subs\sub2.srt

Thank you! I tried experiementing with MPC and saving playlists but it never would save the subs. And I couldn't find any good docs on that format.

Do you know of more options for it?
