Hey,
I've seen a similar message posted millions of times in this forum but haven't been able to find the solution to my problem :( [i guess i have very bad searching skills]
Anyways, I am trying to display subtitles in Windows Media Player but it never works. I have tried two methods:
1) Installed Direct VobSub 2.23 and placed .srt file (with same name) and tried playing in Windows Media Player...The file itself is Divx 5 with Mp3 audio but that shouldn't matter. No subtitles show up by Direct VobSub does load up. Then i tried placing the .idx file with the same name along with the .srt file...no luck
2) OGM--> Muxed subtitles (srt) with OGG Vorbis audio. Tried installing Gabest's Plugins and Tobias Plugins i believe... and this other one, i forget...anyways it doesn't work either...it shows that there's a subtitle stream...and it selects it..just won't display it...
Now after lots of experimenting my windows media player crashes half the time i open my subtitled files *sigh*....
Oh yea..i did uninstall direct vobsub to install the ogm plugins..just in case someone was wondering ;)
Any ideas? Thx!
