MPC supports almost everything, but am I right or can't it switch internal DVD subtitles?!
The subtitles menu always remains grayed out.
The subs are not "locked", switching is allowed.

DVD subtitles are switched via the "Subtitle language" submenu in the "Navigate" menu - because MPC doesn't load those subtitles itself but just tells Microsoft's DVD Navigator filter which subtitle stream it wants.

... which is a little unfortunate if no such thing exists. Some DVDS have a language selection menu at the very start, and that's it.
So this would be a nice feature for future versions.

??? It should be !!!
How do you start the playback? You should start:
- File -> Open DVD
- or double-click the VIDEO_TS.IFO file

After that you should see a Navigate menu ...

That menu sure enough exists for me:

(It's also in the context menu, in case you've turned off the menu bar...)
