quick subtitle problem

[headlessjester]

I cant see the subs on this movie I just got. In the Cd1 folder are 2 .bup files, 2 .ifo files and 4 .vob files. I can play the movie in Windows media fine but I dont know how to get the subs to work. I downloaded Gordian.Knot.Codec.Pack.1.7 and vobsub. I want to play the movie in windows media but if there is another player that I have to get I suppose I'll have to do that.

Hi. Step by step... Do you have the 2 ifos, 2 bups and 4 Vobs in ONE CD?
I think that is kind of impossible, however, I supposed you have a DVD.
Try to use another player like WinDVD or PowerDVD then you are going to see the subs without problems.
Greetings! :)

yeah, I one Cd. Ive never seen that either. there are no files playable by power dvd, and nothing to mount on dameon. Still have an .avi file to play in wmedia but thats it.

:confused: Mh...Tell me, How big are every vob files? Or, Are you sure that they are vobs?
I didn't understand well, do you have an AVI too?

This is truly wierd. May not be so simple after all. After i downloaded that codec pack the entire movie folder was copied...somehow. Regardless, now i have an .avi movie file and an .idx and a .sub file in a seperate folder than the .vob files and stuff.

And yeah, all the .vob files in the other folder are 0 bytes. So you can prety much forget them. I hope the files i mentioned above will help somehow.
