wmp subtitles

[active]

Hi! I tried to put subtitles to a movie. I installed DirectVobSub, renamed both files like this: moviename and moviename.srt. Also Play/Captions and Subtitles is on but when i play this movie it's not playing at all. Like frozen. Please help!

DVDSanta is supposed to be able to do this.

# Supports major video formats such as AVI, WMV, ASF, MPG, VOB...
# Supports major subtitle formats such as SRT, SUB...

Otherwise you can try Subtitle Workshop:

Thank you but I use different method like this ----> http://blog.opensubtitles.org/other/...with-subtitles

Also, I have noticed that when movie's name is "mymovie" and subtitle's file "mymovie.srt" its not playing (screen is black) but when i change movies name to "mymovie.avi" it is playing without subtitles.

I hope someone can help me.

Try to update the player to version.

Are you sure that this movie is original?

You have to select
Play -> Audio And Subtitles -> On if available

The should appear... if not try right clicking the video and in the submenu select subtitles-> english

If still you can't see the movie i suggest to download a codec pack from http://www.free-codecs.com and i recommend XP Codec Pack, that's the one I'm using right now. This is because you need DirectVobSub, a program that implement subtitles to movies in realtime from another file and is included in the pack, along with lot of other useful codecs

To Expertz ----> I updated my player but nothing changed ... and yes, Im sure movie is original.

To Big Fish ----> (Play -> Audio And Subtitles -> On if available) I had already done this. I said it in first post.

"...if not try right clicking the video and in the submenu select subtitles-> english." Well I'm using wmp and I'm not sure if there is such a submenu. At least I cant find.( )

"...i suggest to download a codec pack from..." I downloaded XP Codec Pack but I can't install it. Error... Here is picture --->

It seems that you have not downloaded the full codec pack as the error states of Extracting. Try to download the codec again.

OK... I downloaded It again only this time it show's this messege --->

From what I'd seen online, perhaps XP's Windows Installer is corrupted? XP comes with it already, but I can't figure out why it'd be corrupted after a fresh install.
Maybe this might work: http://www.softwarepatch.com/windows/wininstallnt.html
I'd try it.
