DivX Media Format: subtitles off by default?

[javierperezch]

Is it posible to create a DMF file using FUSE where subtitles are not displayed by default?

Thanx

Fuse doesn't really "turn on" subtitle by default. Fuse mux the subtitles into the video. Your CE player or software must be turning on the subtitle automatically, try to disable it.

But the problem is that the first subtitle is always on by default when the movie starts playing, either on my hardware or software player. I can set it off later.
I just want that subtitles are off when the movie starts, and then tur them on if I want.

There are two different concepts:

1) you CAN specify the default Subtitle in the XML, you can set that to "none", but that doesn't guarantee the player will not turn one on by default

2) some CE players will turn one of the subtitle on by default by picking the subtitle language to match what is set in the CE player; DivX Player is now set to subtitle OFF by default

Thank you for your answer.

Do you have a sample XML showing how to set default subtilte to "none"?

[DivXWill]

for your title object, you can specify an attribute called defaultSubtitleTrack, set that equal to "none"

ie:

<Title objectID="9998" translationLookupID="9999" defaultAudioTrack="02wb" defaultSubtitleTrack="none" >

you probably don't ever want to set the defaultAudioTrack to "none" :D
