How to watch movies with subtitles?

My question might sound silly but I’ll try anyway: for most movies i can only found srt files named cd1/cd2. Now, my movies r often made of a single divx file, meaning the subtitles (‘cd1’) will stop halfway through it. I’m using VLC and i can’t find any way to have the ‘cd2’ file to start from halfway through the file. Any solution to this issue, pls? Did I make myself any clear at all? I hope so…

Dear Developers,
OpenSubtitles.org is a good site to get any movei subtitle, but there is a problem for certain search results.
Same movei title with the same name in different languases eg.: Goal in hindi and in english bring out inappropaite results.Pliz rectify the issue…
Thanks a lot.

Hi there

Download Subtitle Workshop – this will help you synchronize any sub-titles that are out of sync.

on my mpc player i have no database window in options do you know how to fix this thank you.

your a god send thank you very very much.

Is there a way I can embed the SRT file into the movie file and then burn it to a DVD so the subtitles can be read when watched on a DVD player or TV?

Trevor there’s a very good program that I use is call convertXtoDvd you can put an avi as many subs you want, create a menu,convert it to dvd and burn it into a dvd

HELP ME PLS I try to copy and paste 2 sub files into 1 but it failed as the timing does not connects. SO file 1 is 0-49 min and file 2 is 0-1hr 4minutes which is CD1 and Cd2 sub. HOW to combine them? Rewrite every timing????

is there a way that i can embed the srt file into the divx file and have be one so that i can make a data cd. so that when i am watching the movie the subtitles are there for it. i downloaded The Kingdom from fxg and the subtitles were there in the movie. i had this same problem with Eastern Promises and Pans Labyrinth.

@jeremy, you can only do it with a Matroska muxer and your movie’s extension will be .mkv . Download MKVtoolnix, its easy to use, you can add multiple subtiltes, audios, merge or split files.
@WATEVER, use Subtilte Workshop, free and easy to use. You can join subtitles with that, and correct time codes easily or you can use BSPlayer Subtitle Editor. Synchronize both subtitles to your film and copy and paste the second to the first one.

Well.. Im having a big broplem… I dont have/I cant download ( I dont know why!) java player so I cant watch any videos.. so im in trouble cuz I dont know how to use subtitles and there aint no way to get that info.. so could anyone help me??
If you cant help me I’ll just find my brothers friend and drag him here to take care of things… 😀

To Watever:you can’t copy and paste 2 subtitles files to make one.( I suppose you work with a PC and not a Mac) Use Sub MAGIC Editer ( I do) with this program you can open the first SRT sub file and then APPEND the second SRT file and it works.You can also sync the timing with the AVI film and change it if necessary.Program is 2.4Mb version 0.7 and it works 5 times better than Vobsub.
Success! Johnvana

well, I downloaded dr. Strangelove estonian subtitled, and what I got was a .txt format file, no srt or something, I even tried to rename it but nothing, my videoplayer dont find it. I’m using TOTEM

Hi everyone, I am watching Talvisota which has cd1 and cd2. The subtitles for cd2 start with the start of cd2 but those subtitles are meant for the frame which comes at around 4 minute.

i’m trying it for hours!! it doesnt works
ca somebody explain me in different steps what i have to do

I have tried to get it work with the movie “American Gangster” and Greek subtitles from http://subscene.com/American-Gangster/subtitles-69885.aspx

subtitles show up but is not in Greek…..seem like “chinese” to me…like something with the encoding is wrong. Tried to use subs downloaded from else where ,same problem.Used English subs,shows up OK. Any ideas whats wrong? I hate my new Vista and am afraid that is something wrong with them…obviuosly am not a computer expert..
I have used MPC and subdownloader, didnt find any Greek subs,I downloaded 2 different subs from 2 different websites…..and the subs show up as some kind of wrong unicode or encoding. Same thing when try to play with VLC. Please help me.

hi everyone. is there anybody know how to make subtitles for downloaded movie?

I am hoping you know something about vobsubs submux?! Why is it that I can only successfully mux subtitles to avi files on some movies?? Sometimes after I hit mux it does nothing but save a 1 second file and I am doing the exact same thing and the same types of files as I do when it actually works and I can see that submux is working because all these numbers randomize where you hit mux. I am so frustrating because I have a few movies that I can not mux subtitles onto therefore I cannot convert them to dvd and watch them. I really hope that you can help me and would be very much appreciative.

I wanna ask a question.
i have a movie SAW 4 in .VOB formats(5parts)

Can anyone help me, I have rendition in ISO format and i am trying to get it to play so that there are subtitles for the Arabic parts ONLY. I downloaded, renamed, put them in the same folder, selected with VLC and still nothing or out of sync! driving me mental

How can i delay a srt-subtitle file.

Is there any command in the *.srt-file syntax?

Perhaps exist a sommand like ” -00:00:40,000″
or something else?

In every forum I go to, people explain how to do this and that… and it’s always for PCs. Macs are different – and I can’t get certain subtitles to work.

I use the VCL Player. If I play an .MKV film, with subtitles (which have the .ass extension), it works fine. If I play an .AVI film, with subtitles (which have the .sub extension), it works fine. BUT, if I play an .AVI film, with subtitles (which have the .srt extension), it does NOT work. In short, subtitles seem to work, EXCEPT for those with the .srt extension. Again, I’m using a Mac. Does anyone know what the problem is? I know how to use the VCL Player and open subtitles, but .srt does not work on the Mac version of VCL.

hi. i use widows media player and real player. is it possible for me to watch a movie in either of these two players with subtitles? pease guide me. i m very new to this. if its not possible to watch the movie with subtitles, can i just download the movie script/ actual subtitles from any website in ms-word or .pdf format? anyone who can help me, please contact me at [email protected]. a million thanks!

hi every1,
i use Nero Vision 4 to burn movies onto DVD’s and sometimes the movie that i add to burn audio goes out of sync. Is there something i can do to fix this? as some movies i add to nero vision 4 to burn work perfectly fine its only some movies that dont sync with the audio.
Please help. thanks

For players I normally use the Gom Player, if you are having problems with subtitles at any given time, make sure it’s the correct format (.srt) and that it’s a written document.
Also make sure the subtitles are the exact same name as the movie, or else your player will not pick it up and you will not get subtitles for your movies, also make sure they are both saved in the same folder.

Make sure you’re using a proper player and have the right extensions to play the movie. Some times if I cannot play the movie it’s because I am missing certain codecs in which case I downloaded a full codec pack which helped with certain movies and subtitles. I also use FFDshow for extra codecs to play certain movies that will not play or work properly on my computer.

But i have done everything that is in this little blog for the past few years and it has yet to fail me, i suggest looking into what your computer might be missing if you are having problems with playing subs and movies on your computer.

Btw, i use VLC…

mati162c, rename the txt to srt!

Costel: I have been successful with converting of DVDR files (vobs) into avi format using both Divx and Xvid compression using AutoGK. In the past you had to learn 5 programs and was quite complicated. What AutoGK does is install and run these various programs for you. Turning the task into a one click soluction (much like using convertXtoDVD for the opposite direction). Note that converting a full movie takes 3-6 hours depending on the computer (where the the opposite convert using convertXtoDVD is 45 min – 1 1/2 hours). AutoGK is opensource. Do a google search for it and visit its forums if you have any questions.

When I try adding Chinese subtitles to a movie, it shows up as a set of weird characters and not the actual chinese characters I’m hoping for. Is there something I didn’t do properly or another program I need? Will the same problem occur if I put it in a DVD player?

i can”t figure it out .can you tell me step for step what to do for getting subtitels with my movie?

Can anyone tell me how to burn these two items on a dvd? The movie ánd the subtitles.

Thanks!

sorry i should add that my pc runs on german windows

I am using quick time to view movies in a MAC (OS X). I followed your directions for getting subtitles but they are not running with the movie. What can i do? Thanks for your help.

I have been trying to add English subs to the french flick “Hors de Prix” and even though I’ve changed the file names to be the same, it still doesn’t work. Is there a specific video program I need for this to work properly? It’s really frustrating…any help would be great. Thanks.

Dear All,

I am a new member in this site. Now, I got a problem that I cannot put the subtitle on the movie.

Please advise how to put the subtitle on the movie?

All of your help will be great.

Thanks
Nattaporn

forgive me for being so stupid but i downloaded a film, then downloaded the subtitle, what now?!?!

what is a srt file?

do you have to put them both in a winRAR archive and wait for them to forget their differences. Please help me…

everyone here seems to have gotten a hell of a lot further than me!!

all you can do is download subs from another source and hope its set up how you want it. Most movies should come with automatic subs for non english parts(so just disable subs)

Just use this program

VobSub

search for this program and u will see the legends on MP ;O

can anyone please give me the link or torrent to download the “Rendez-vous”

Hi everyone! I am downloading DVD movies but I do not always find the subtitles for Spanish (my language)included in the DVD. Could you recommend a way to download those subtitles and tell me how to do in order to add them to the movie?

Hi, I have read all the comments and tired all the suggestions but still unable to get the sub file working.

There is a sub file but it just does not seem to work http://www.mininova.org/com/1096766

The .avi file is in the same folder that has the .srt file and I renamed them to be the same. I am using VLC. It plays fine just no subs, could you shed any light on to what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!! Lauren

To esh,

Stan on Jan-08 has a suggestion, see if it will work for you.

by the way, all the sub names are fine (the same as the movie) and the subs are displayed, it’s just screwed up on the player screen

this helped for the viewing part what about the burning part so I can view it on my dvd player cause there is times where I would head to a friends house and bringing a dvd is easier then a hardrive for them

how to disappears the green line on the screen.
this green line appear when i put the subtitle..

Hi, Can anyone help telling me how can I burn the movie on a DVD with the subtitles?
Thankyouuuuuu

i watch divx movies on Playstation 3.
but can i put subtitels on my Playstation 3?

Thank YOU LUKE! I was blundering a bit cuz i cudnt figured it out, then this came up
“With VLC media player I didn’t have to rename the downloaded subtitles file or put it in the same folder as the movie. I downloaded subtitles as WinRAR zip files, extracted the file and just put .srt on the end of the extracted file. With VLC just use file – open file and you you will see a browse function which you can use to search for the movie file and which can be on your PC or on a DVD and below you will see subtitle options. Put a tick in the box and click on settings and you can then use the browse function for the subtitles file.”
I suggest to those who still dont get it, to use VLC. Simple as 1,2,3. Thank you also to the website for the subs and tutorial.

thanks for every one . especially Edwin and Sreeraj

I use mpc player with k-lite codec and it works just fine for me.
1. Rename the subtitle exactly the same with the video name and add .srt at the end of the name (just copy & paste) even the file still in text document.
2. Make sure they are in the same folder

and u can watch your video with the sub.

Thanks for the tips! Now I can watch La Femme Nikita with eng sub perfectly.

GOTCHAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mustve been a corrupt file. Thanks boss.

i was wondering, if i have a version of the movie and the subtitles are out of sync how do i delay them??
plz reply to my email if possible

I have downloaded Scaramouche n the related subtitle file as well. I’m using the VLC player. i have tried renaming the file to .srt. Doesnt work. When it does, the timing is also haywire…I mean the dialogue-subtitle sync is not there. I am NOT a tech friendly human. So can any of you pls explain to me how to about this. Would be most obliged. Mail me at [email protected]

Thanx in advance.

My question might sound silly but I’ll try anyway: for most movies i can only found srt files named cd1/cd2. Now, my movies r often made of a single divx file, meaning the subtitles (’cd1?) will stop halfway through it.

One stupid question.
I have downloaded movie in .wmv format and this is not having any subtitles in it.
How can watch movie in English subtitles?

The Subtittle must be in the (srt) format.
at the same time SUBTITTLE name must be RANAMED as particuler films name.

thanks!

Thanks a lot buddy .. u solved a big problem .. 😛

@cuti ! yes putting srt files into DVD in convertx2DVD is possible, i have done it myself. Just wait i reinstall this proggy and i will tell u exactly what to do to have your subs incrusted in your movie ( u can even have a few languages…).
Won’t be long !

RE:
Mario, on January 8th, 2008 at 5:49 pm Said:
What i often do is
a) open the srt file 2, select the content, copy and close.
b) open the srt file 1, click at the END of it, paste and SAVE.

My question following: with what program I can open a filename extension “srt”, and then after editing to save again in an extension “srt”?
I tried it to make by means of a notebook, but the file is saved in an extension “txt”, and its renaming in “srt” don’t give result.

Vitalii,

Open with notepad, save as (keep .srt extension)

Cheers.

Thanx alots guy ……… 🙂
I have succeded in embeding subtitle into my DVD movie 🙂

YOU ARE GREATTTTTTTTTTT

Ok so here is my problem. I have some anime vids I downloaded in Japanese with the subtitles as a option to select in say vlc player. but when I converted it to put on my psp the subtitles are not there. What can I do to fix this problem? Please help.

Robin, you might just need to download some other srt file, i’ve had the same problem a few times, and i’ve fixed it by downloading different kinds of files and trying them out. some of them work perfectly, some of them.. not that good.

it’s sound hardest way but will result sweet thing ,
You can add .SRT to your .avi file using virtualDUB and SRT converter to SSA file .You can download that file at afterdawn.com (maybe(it`s free too)) and you can get how to add srt file to your avi guide there too!!
may be this is the link you need (or if not you can googling it first ):

http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/adding_subs_to_avi.cfm

(I recommend that you must download the latest virtual dub (maybe in opensourceforge))

it s recomended that you’re movie.avi don’t have subtitle first or it’ll cross!

sorry 4 again asking the same i am unable to make the subtitle to work on with my movies.so early reply required

can i watch a MPEG -4 movie with subtitles. if so how am i gonna do it.

Hi Guys, i changed the subtitle file name as “movie.srt” & then i opened the movie file in windows media player 11 & other movie players, but still i am not able to view the subtitles, does anybody know how to merge subtitle into an avi movie ????? PLZZZZZ i need ur help guys

Hey i need the english subtitles of the movie Riffa, la starring Monica bellucci. please can u help me to get it ……

“We” people?

We have Perian for Quicktime, mPlayer, VLC, Movist, Plex, XBMC and several others and they ALL play subtitles, same as “you PC people”.

We somehow manage to not have issues. We know subtitles must be named the same as the movie. We know subtitles must be placed in the same place as the movie. Also the sames as “you PC people”.

We also can deduct that if we have two subtitle files and only one movie file then we probably won’t be able to use that. In the end if a subtitle doesn’t work we can download another (using SubDownloader or others) or try to fix it. We can use Subs Factory or Jubler to fix it.

I have followed the comments in this thread and I must say I’ve been surprised some people here even manage to start up their own PCs with some of the questions (and answers!).

It’s amusing, as Mac users are generally considered to be “simpler” yet there are problems I see here I can’t even imagine hearing from a Mac user.

Incidentally, I’m a Mac user who also uses Windows and Linux. I use Mac as a personal preference as I consider it the most balanced, useful and best-looking option of the three.

i dont know how to instaall this

i have a problem with subtitles because when i start a movie , subtitlle showed but not in the same time.when the actors speak the SYNCHRONIZATION showed later.if anybody can tell me something about that , i will be thankfull.

Thank u so much to the one who guided. Man! I would never come to know about this. It really helps a allot. thanks once again

If you are having trouble with the delay when using subtitle u should set the delay/timing in the MPC (vobsub) or at VLC
One thing u must know that the framerate also effect the subtitle.
Go to the movie properties and find out the framerate, usually 25fps. if u have a different framerate it will also couse u an out of sync. hmm gonna make some tutorial ill post the link here if i had done it.

Hi,
I am a Mac user. I downloaded two subtitles for a film, did what was told here and it works fine. BUT. How can I switch the subs off? The QuickTime player shows ‘off’ in the View/Subtitles menu item.
Thankx for the help.

Thanx for the reply. I do have Perian and the subtitles work fine. I would just like to know how to switch them off.

what do u do to get to the place where u change the file name?

i had this problem for the first time: when i copy the sub to the same folder with one of my movie file and change the sub file name according to the mov file… And when i opened the mov file, there was nothing on the window media screen, totally black. Then i deleted the sub, the mov played well.
I dont get it

I renamed my Arabic subtitle file as the movie name and it appears while I run my media player the only problem is that I get an unknown format like it is Chinese or something like that, does anybody know why?!

Hi. my problem is i cant seen to open the file once its downloaded …it just comes as a blank file….my winrar works fine with other files…and i have tried with other extraction software…..any advice much appreciated…

Jonas, I do have the exact same problem that you do. at least with Windows Media Player. I use VobSub, and the movie just won’t play if the subtitle is added. but it plays fine with the subtitle when I switch to Divx Player or BS Player.

The other huge problem that I get is that it seems like when subtitle is added, certain movies have their audio affected. like either the sound becomes too inaudible, or it is distorted. Does that happen to you?

Hey man, thanks for the help! Really helped me out.

Hi!

sry!I have a question!i hope u can solve my problem….

please advise
i’m using windows vist, and windows media player.
thanks!

Thank u!!

Is it really that easy as just renaming the file. I fumbled for hours trying to find out how and found this website thank you so much. http://highqualitymoviedonwloads.info

I tried to follow the same instructions as above. I use the VLC player. Strangely, the srt files didn’t work out for me but it was another kind of file named SUB file. Don’t know if anyone has heard of it. Anyway, is there a more detailed instruction? Like do you need to open the VLC first then go open file and click add subtitles or something? Cuz i tried lot’s of ways and it didn’t work out. Please help me out here. Thnx.

hello
I didn’t know this simple thing….thanks ….

Oh, and if you have .sub subtitle file you should also have an .idx subtitle file too. As far as i know they need to be together in the same folder and named the same as the video (ex: movie.mp4 and movie.sub & movie.idx) in order to work right.

I just can´t put the movie and the subtitles together!

i´ve already renamed them but i just don´t know how to put them together!
is there any program that can do it?

how do the subtitles work with macbook.??

Hello developer,
i usually download the movie in one web-site and download the subtitles in the other. the problem is (usually) that if i download them in different website they don’t sync and the subtitles often appear 2-5 seconds after they are suppose to, how do i delay the appears of the subtitles? and the opposite?
Secondly, how do I name a few different subtitle languages in the same name? (the comp says you cant).
Thanks alot
and thank you for the great website

thanx 4 giving the sub……. it’s very useful to us.

Amirt… umm, actually, if you like to type, then instead of menu ctrl+B (select all), then ctrl+D
TYPE in the offset (again, please read above –
if it’s a matter of simple synchronizaton with no FPS speed discrepancies… open video preview, wait till the first words are spoken, pause, notice the timing – this is your end timings for the first line in subtitles. do a simple math (addition, subtraction) , select all, enter the delay difference.)

I am not sure what writing you are referring to – if the subtitles are 10 seconds ahead, subtract 10 seconds (EDIT _ SET DELAY menu, or ctrl+D) . etc, etc. that is you type a number 10 in seconds field… *cough*

tip – use end timings in the subtitles, this synchs the dialogue more properly.

Start with the basic stuff, please. I think you better download the program first… then open your subtitle file. I don’t think you’d have questions like these after you’ve done at least that.

Cheers

I like to watch my movies on the TV.
I use the DIVX player to burn avi files, but can I also burn the srt files with it?

I use DVD-R if that makes a difference?

Hey! 🙂 I have a movie and downloaded the English subtitles and I want to embed it in the movie so I can watch it in my psp. What can you advice?

Ok so I found where to open file and tick the box for subtitles and browse to select the correct subtitle file, but it still dosent work… The movie is a dvd rip (img file) and has already got some subtitles in other languges, is that why it wont work?
Plz help!!!

I cannot seem to rename or use any subtitles with my VLC Kill Bill. Not eve the subtitles that came WITH the movie will work. I dont understand how to change the name, and the subtitles that came with the movie are IDX format. I am a noob when it comes to stuff like this. PLEASE HELP.

Found this article very useful, so I thought I’d try to help. If the subtitles aren’t in sync, that might be because the video started being recorded at a different time than the subtitles. Try downloading the subtitles from another source.
I found myself having trouble at first renaming the subtitle file, so what I did was this: instead of just opening the ZIP file, I right-clicked and extracted the files. After this, I was then able to rename the subtitle file.
After that, to watch the movie on my computer, I just hightlighted both the subtitle file and the video file and opened them together. The subtitles appeared just as normal. Hope this helped anyone.

as you said that the srt. file must be at the same location of the avi. file.

my problem is when i downloaded it in withs2.com its only srt. then i followed the guide that you have given, then it work a bit cause when i right clicked it, it says play then under of it open with and then etc. but when i clicked play it doesn’t work cause it says “the media cannot be play. its either the file is corrupt or the format wasn’t supported by the player.”

pls. help me i’m dying of longing to watch the movie

plssssssss…… i really want to watch it! and i’ll do anything in return

plss…. help me

but i already downloaded the zipped subtitles cause when i downloaded it, it is already zipped.

pls. tell me how to play!

thank you so much in advance i am really expecting your reply.

Hi
I have a mac and I have a problem with the subtitle!!
i have cd1/CD2 and don’t know why but the CD2 is never working and i don’t know what to do plz help
thanks!

To Matt:

If your subtitles are running out of synch you should use a tool to synch the movie and subs file. Subtitle Edit (www.nikse.dk/se) is a very good choice. You only have to visually synch the very first line of dialogue with its corresponding subtitle line and do the same with the final dialogue and sub lines. Synchronization is made visually and you have all the needed controls (like displacement bars, play/pause/stop/fwd/rew/ buttons including frame displacement controls) to make it in the easy way.

Hi!

Is there a tool or program to edit subs in SUB-IDX format? I don’t mean editing times but text. Tried with Subtitle Workshop (gr8 program, thnx for the tip!) but it won’t recognize them.
thnx for helping!

Thnx for answering. Thought it would be easier…

thanks, buddy. your tips worked well. now i see the subtitles. just i extracted the srt file in the same folder of the movie, renamed the file by right clicking the srt file, wrote the same name of the movie file and lastly added .srt. thats all. it was so simple. it worked. i hope this information will be useful for beginners like me.

if you could find it my mail is: [email protected]

I have read all the answers to this question an i have the best advice, trust.

Ok all you need to do is go to http://www.moovida.com
When you download Moovida for free it adds additional information to your media files such as since were talking about movie files it inriches your movie files adding fan art work, an a synopsis on the movie.
Also giving you the option to turn on SUBTITLES in a large choice of languages.

Enjoy it i do……..

I just read your instructions for adding subtitles. I downloaded subtitles for XXY. I have KM player and flicked through and it all seems to have worked! So easy! thank you!

I am using the WD HD TV media player for viewing foreign movies (with English subtitles), that has limited support for displaying subtitles. Some ISO files will display subtitles (but others don’t), and when VOB files are used no subtitles ever! There are no separate SRT files , so I had to either download them from this site, or had to generate them myself from the VOB files using SubRip, (that appears to be generating a “proper” SRT file as far as I can tell.
I understand that the SRT file must have the same filename as the main movie, but since there are several (4-8) VOB files and I have only one SRT file, I do not know what could work. But even if I force the SRT file name to match one of the VOB files (exactly), and the WD HD TV may detect that there is a subtitle track, it will not display it! Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

hello,
I have a problem.
Idownloaded the subtitle workshop, but I don´t know how to manage it. I pasted my subtitle file (SRT) to workshop, but I couldn´t open the movie file. What shall I do? Please help.

Liis from Estonia

thanks man

eduo:
Thanks for the information regarding the issue of SRT files. I did not know that SRT files are not supposed (or guaranteed) to work with .bin or .vob or .iso files. As far as I know the standard default format for DVD movies is the VOB format, so I try to save my files in the same, to prevent any data loss. (ISO copies also supposed to be bit to bit replicas.) These files work just fine in any software DVD player, (I’m normally using PowerDVD), without any SRT file.

But my WDHDTV will NOT handle subtitles embedded in VOB files! They explicitly require the creation of SRT files when the media is in VOB format, subject to the same requirement publishe here: the must have identical file name, as the VOB thus the only difference is the filetype.

I did succeed to create working subtitles with a smaller chunk (only the first 1GB VOB file). But as you mentioned it can’t be guaranteed that they will be always detected. This is a limitation of the WDHDTV hardware (firmware really) and I just try to work out a solution for it. Do you have experience of full DVD VOB structure conversion to other formats? Aren’t yu experiencing some degree of signal deterioration?

I have the highest standards for video quality and would not want to loose any picture information. I am watching all my movies in 1080P format, even though of course some older movies have to be upscaled to that , since their original recording was done is inferior quality.

Thanks again for you help.

hey….!! i have got a problem. like when i save the subtiles in 1 cd format its play fine ..!! but when i save subtiles and the format of the movie is 2 cd like human trafficking so its not working .!! subtitles is not cuming..!! if there is any other way to save subtiles in 2 cd format or wat the problem any body knows so temme..

Hallo,

hey, someone pls help me, I tried to find english subtitles of A Perfect Getaway, I couldn’t find that which is matching with the movie, pls is there any solution I can make myself???

thanks

Lots of people seem to have trouble with Chinese subtitles in VLC. I think I have it figured out. The problem is the font VLC uses to render the subtitles. You need to use a specific font, namely Arial Unicode. This font came installed on my computer in the directory C: WIndows/fonts. However, Windows won’t allow VLC to use this font directly from the windows directory. In addition, windows won’t let me copy the font and paste it to another directory. BUT, it WILL let me drag it (you MUST drag, don’t copy and paste) to my desktop and then copy it to any other directory. Strange huh? SO, copy the font file to whatever directory you want and then open VLC. Go to tools/preferences/subtitles & OSD. Where it says font, click browse, find and select the Arial Unicode font. Then, under default encoding, select Universal Chinese and restart VLC. This should do it. If you get Chinese looking characters that still don’t make sense, try another encoding. There are 2 for Traditional Chinese, 2 for Simplified CHinese and one called Hong Kong Supplementary. Universal Chinese and Traditional Chinese (Big 5) seem to be the most common. Hope this helps

I recentley downloaded many english movies with greek subtitles. Some of them work no problem. Others movies have the subtitles but it is not greek. I don’t think it is any language. It is just symbols and weird lettering. Is it my computer that can’t read it? How come my computer can read some and others it can’t?

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi,
I did everything you said here and my subs work only they are the wrong one’s.. Its a driffrent thing what they say and what the subs say. I’ve also downloaded the right subtitle file and still its not working!!

Please help me!

Tinne

Ok here’s the deal. I have no problem downloading or making the subs work, but instead of proper subs i get something like this:
+u_ov= gi8ue o?i

the subs are supposed to be in Greek and my windows are English.
Is this a windows problem? It doesn’t seem to have problems when i work on word with Greek but i have seen the same thing happen when i tried to convert pdf to doc.
Any help would be very welcome..

All the subtitle files i have ever used only show the subtitles for the speech in the language of the subtitles. My first language is English so i don’t need subtitles for the english speech but in films with other languages as well is it possible to get a subtitle file with only the other languages translated into english if they are not hardwired into the movie already?

thanks my dear friends.. but the problem is i m using VLC player and the subtitles are too late i find subs at the end

You could try the windows app at subsscribe.webs.com.

It lets you amend the timing of subtitles to make them show sooner or later. It also lets you translate them using google if the language you need isnt available.

i have problem with my computer,the SRT file is opened with notepad,i notify that the movie will retrieve the subtitle if it is not have any program that open it.now,how i gonna solve this?to remove the notepad from SRT file…all SRT i have on my computer are open with notepad..please help me on these..

Trying to run srt subtitles with a film on VLC 1.1.6 or Opensubtitles.

The subtitles are out of synch and even after being lined up with the VLC keyboard shortcuts, inevitably creep back to the delayed time.

Hello, I use VLC player and I’m trying to watch Star Wars… I have the .mkv file and the correct subs; however, I just want the subs when the Hutt’s talk or whoever isn’t speaking english.

thnx

Dear Sir

I switched to MAC recently. My goal is to watch DVD Disc (I have a large collection with Discs) on my Mac and see dual subtitles (for language learning), say English and Spanis.

When using PC i used to watch those discs with PowerDVD 10. It has the capability to view two subtitles (MAIN and SECONDARY).

Now, PowerDVD does not exist for MAC.
VLC-MAC > only let me view one subtitle at a time.
Movist-MAC > there is NO option to open a Disc! Obviously I cannot rip 1000+ discs to other formats (like MKV) just to be able to see dual subtitles at the same time…please help

I’ve downloaded a number of films now with terribly translated subtitle files. Is there a reason for this? It’s really hard to watch a film with my partner knowing it’s all wrong and some of the English is illegible. Who the fuck makes these things?

I just can’t find subtitles in portuguese-br for the film “From the Terrace” (1960). Can you help me ?

I am able to easily mux movies and subtitles together however when I play those videos (in other players) or burn them onto a dvd…. the subtitles are dark gray.

How do I keep my sutbtitles yellow? I can see yellow the best and its set as my default, plus before I mux the videos/srt, it’s yellow in the first place.

wat abt whn watchng an online movie?

how to move the subs in the movie????????means how to move it in movie if subs is not in the movie?

the subtitles are not in proper sync..
it doesnt match wid d dialogues said

CONCERNING FRAME RATE!!

Make sure that the frames per second number (FPS) for the movie matches the FPS for the subs. Download sites will usually give the FPS for the movie. For the subs, it’s often in the title of the sub file. Some subtitle sites also provide it in the ‘details’ section for the individual subtitle file (subscene for example). Equal FPS is the only criteria for subs and films which will work together. If the FPS is not the same, the film will not sync with the subs. (Some players force you to use a subtitle name which matches that of the film, in which case you must rename the sub file, but this has nothing to do with the FPS issue.)

MISTAKE

A lot of the instructions for using subs state that the title of the sub file and of the movie must match. They give this instruction thinking that this is a way to deal with the FPS problem. This is a MISTAKE because it eliminates using sub files with titles not matching that of the video file. True, if the two titles match, you are guaranteed equal FPS. But you can use a file which does not match the movie on name, as long as the FPS is the same. (23.976 and 25.0 are the only frame rates I know of.)

A related trick. If you have a video without the FPS info and/or a sub file without the FPS info, you can find out if there is a match on FPS as follows. Get the run time for the video. Open the srt file and look at the time for the last subtitle. If these are close, you have probably got a matching pair. To be exactly sure, do the following. Find the time for the last subtitle. Go to that time on the video. If the content of the audio at that point on the film matches the content of the last subtitle, you are guaranteed that the subs will work for the video.

In some cases, even if the FPS is the same, the subs must be either delayed or moved forward to get them to sync with the video. At least some of the players enable this, e.g., smplayer. This fact of course complicates the techniques described in the previous paragraph.

I dowenload subtitle and when I play it on windows 7 it display unreadable words like
ÛÑíÛæÑí)¡ ÚÏ) not arabic …. what I can do

You can use Avdshare Video Converter to removing subtitles from MKV with the help of an MKV Subtitle Remover named MKV Subtitle Remover.

When I feel the need, I use Aegisub to slide forward the subtitles in the CD2.srt file… it takes more or less a minute.

Then, you can decide to keep the two separated, or try to merge the files in one (.srt are, really, plain text files with the format

Index
thimestart->timened
text
