    error description:
    Every time you enter the configuration app, you have to delete a "Movie Post Processing" filter that keeps coming back in order to have Vobsub working (vobsub auto-loading version, needed to be able to turn subs on/off from within MediaPortal with MCE remote).

    To see the problem follow these steps:

    1, Install Vobsub if you haven't, I don't have any more "subtitle-viewing"-program installed (i'm not having ffdshow installed either).
    2, In MP Config, be sure to check the "show subtitles" button in the Movie-section. Also choose your default language and font settings.
    3, In the section "Movie Post-Processing", add DirectVobSub (auto-loading version) as a filter. Check the box, and then go into "filter properties".
    4, Under the "General" tab, be sure to set "Loading" to "Always load", otherwise it won't work (it didn't for me anyway...).
    5, Exit MP Config.
    6, Be sure that the movie and subtitle-file has the same name.
    7, Start MP, start your movie and voíla! You can now choose language (or disable subtitles) by pressing the yellow button on your MCE remote.
