[QUOTE="mad82, post: 288846, member: 80822"] Thanks a lot. I used MediaPortal a while ago and couldn't get it to display subtitles so I used an external smplayer which was configured how I wanted and I was happy. Recently I formated and went to Ubuntu, then to Windows Server 2008 configured like Vista, but at the end of the day, XP just works how I want it (although I do like Ubuntu if I could get my tv to work with it properly). Anyway I decided that on this install I'd get everything working in MediaPortal properly. First was getting my MCE remote working. Before I used autoit and some 3rd party dll or something to get it working. It was annoying. Next mp wouldn't play my movies. Stupid me didn't install a codec pack. Hey everything played in smplayer! Next the subtitles wouldn't show no matter what. Was getting mad and then I saw this post. I do believe I have everything setup exactly how I want it now. :thx: edit: so I found a few files that wouldn't play but all the rest would. Long story short I undid what I did her, went to the Haali filter, options, compatibility, autoload vsfilter and switched it from no to yes. Now everything plays like it should. [/QUOTE]
