[QUOTE="Bram, post: 52310, member: 17179"] I just have my movies directory on the MP pc shared with full rights for me. So if i want to add a subtitle I download it with my workstation and copy the file to the sharedDirectory\movieDirectory\ on the HTPC. Then I rename it to the movie filename. For example: [b]D:\MyMovies\[/b] is the shared direcotry where I story my movies [b]12345.srt[/b] is the original subtitle file I downloaded that should match the movie. Let's take King Kong 2005 for example. From my workstation I copy 12345.srt to the shared directory on my HTPC. Now we have [b]D:\MyMovies\King Kong 2005\12345.srt[/b]. The exact name of the movie is King.Kong.2005.DVDRIP.avi -> [b]D:\MyMovies\King Kong 2005\King.Kong.2005.DVDRIP.avi[/b] Now I rename [b]D:\MyMovies\King Kong 2005\12345.srt[/b] to [b]D:\MyMovies\King Kong 2005\King.Kong.2005.DVDRIP.srt[/b] If I play the movie with Windows Media Player or Winamp for example, VobSub (included in the K-Lite Mega Codecpack) automaticly starts and plays the subtitles in overlay over the movie. You know VobSub started because of a small green arrow in the taskbar. And yes, you can enable/disable them. But there are no menu's when using VobSub. My girlfriend is hearig impared so I have subtitles for almost all my movies and use it all the time. It works with no effort on MP when VobSub is installed. So just install VobSub... voila. If the .str filename is not exactly the same as the movie filename, the subtitles won't show. [/QUOTE]
