Not getting Subtitles!!!! DRIVING ME INSANE

[Difflam]

Arg!!!!

Ive followed every single subtitle guide on Doom9's page, yet for the life of me I cannot get subtitles to display!!!! In fact, when I right-click in the window (playing in WMP) I never get any kind of menu, let alone a "language" or "subtitle" menu. I've tried the following methods:

1) VobSub, made sure the *.sub and *.ifo and *.idx were all in the same directory as the AVI, and that they were called the same name. Didn't work.

2) Using Subrip (with OCR), saving as *.sub, using sub2sami to convert the file to *.smi. Put that in the same dir as the AVI, and made sure it was the same filename. Nothing came up in the caption window in WMP, nor did any kind of menu come up when I right-click the window where the video is playing.

3) Making an *.ogm instead of an AVI, and muxing the *.srt subtitles in using graphedit. STILL NO SUBTITLES, NOR ANY MENU WHEN I RIGHTCLICK THE VIDEO.

Its driving me insane, can someone help out?

I can only answer 1 question when you did an ogm file did you use mplayer2 to play the file oterwhise you whont se the language menu.
(mplayer2 usually in C:\Program files\Windows Media Player\mplayer2.exe). Hope it works.

Thanks for the advice.... I was actually opening it in WMP 7.1, not 6.4. I didn't realise 7.1 wouldnt display the subs.

I can't test it right now but as soon as I can I will test this out...

Tried it in WMP6.4 and still no Subtitles option when I right-click the video... there is a "languages" option but thats for the audio stream.
