Okay, i have a wmp video file but the language is not in english and there are no subtitles, but there is a file which is a .srt file and this file has all the movie's subs. Now i'm thinking is there a way to view those subs while watching the wmp video file. I will be using win media player to watch the video file but if there is any other software that will allow me to view the subs and watch the movie at the same time, i'd really appreciate that. The thing is that it is a .srt file so something can be done with it right?

thanks for help.

It turns out to be very simple.

I found this advice in another forum, followed it, and it worked just fine:

Name the AVI file and the SRT file with the same name.
For example, if your movie is ArtofWar.avi.
Name the SRT file ArtofWar.srt.

When you click on the AVI file to play it--either with the Windows Media Player or the older "classic" media player, it will automatically play the subtitles with the movie.

Before you do that, if you want to watch the movie in WMP you can also do that.

Either with DirectVobSub or with ffdshow
I've used both, and ffdshow seems to be faster with starting up, and takes up less resources, but either work fine with any WMP edition.

Once installed, make sure your .srt file has the exact same name as your media file.
E.g. you want to play FindIng-NemO.mpg make sure the srt will be this: FindIng-NemO.srt (f2, ctrl+c on the movie then ctrl+v on the srt)

If done correctly, on DirectVobSub you'll get to see a green arrow in the right lower right part of your screen, and with ffdshow you'll get to see either an audio and/or video codec icon in the lower right part of your screen.


This is the best advice...I have got DirectVobSub worked for me Yipee. Thanx a bunch:)

Hello guys.
I have little issue with sutitles. There is a slight delay between them and a movie. I use VLC player and renamed subtitle file exactly as a movie name.
So why there is a little delay? Need your help.
Thank you very much, Anya

sorry guy. after reading the whole of .srt files, i have a problem now.

i using mplayerc to watch video but i came across this file.srt and i had downloaded the ffdshow. i'm stuck with the problem with the icon below.

after i install everything i open up FFV decoder. 2 question to ask is 1. did i open the correct one? 2. did i need to set anything or just press okay and it appear at the bottom right corner?

Use smplayer. http://smplayer.sourceforge.net its automatically detects ur srt file if placed in the same folder as the movie file.
Make sure the srt ile name is exactly the same as the movie files but with .srt extension as mentioned in earlier posts.

To those of you using VLC, enjoy your ugly subtitles.

With minimal work, you can get everything that VLC does to work better than it does on VLC in Windows Media Player or MPC.

i already choose subtitle..i already checked it ..when playing on vlc...i also tried downloading srt files but it still doesnt show subtitle
