Watching AVI with subtitle and subtitle files.

[iwod]

I already have a AVI ( divx ) with subtitle in it. I also have another file with another langauges subtitle. How do i use the file with subtitle in it instead of the one inside the AVI?? ( i don't want to remove the subtitle inside the AVI, just when playing it instead of playing the subtitle inside the AVI it uses the file which has another languages subtitle in it.. )

Any ideas??

DirectVobSub that comes with VobSub shoud be able to do that I think.

If the subtitles you don't want are "inside the .avi" then they are burned into the video during encoding. There is little you can do to remove them, since...what's "behind" them doesn't exist. Here's a recent thread on this subject: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=16139

Direct Vobsub, as described, can display subtitles from a separate file during playback. Similarly, ffdshow can do the same thing. There are also a number of .avi players that support separate subtitle display, such as BSPlayer.
