I have many subtitles in .srt format. To insert them into my .avi movies i simply place them in the same directory and making both file names the same.

This works fine for english subs, however when i try insert other language subs, weird characters/symbols are displayed during playback. Those non-english subs are correct when u open then in note pad, just not during playback with the movie.

What do you mean with "other language"? If it is a language with non-Latin characters, you might have to pick an approriate font in the dvobsub settings for them to display OK.
