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:)

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.
