[Question] MP Extended Cyrilic substitle support (1 Viewer)

[egundoko]

IS there a way to show subtitles with the correct encoding un the web app.

 

[Oxan]

WebMP doesn't support subtitles at the moment.

(I don't have plans to implement it currently, but patches are welcome )

Oxan, i see you are Dutch. Me too, so i guess you need subtitles yourself too
It loads the subtitles nicely, but i guess that are subs from the stream itself then, no srt?

Nah, not really. Only for non-English content.

Yes, that's correct.

Yes, that's correct.

How is it possible then that i see srt subs loaded in both flash and direct player from a movie with no subs in stream?

Ah, you're right. If you select a default subtitle language in the MPExtended configuration and your srt subs are correctly named (preferably using two or three letter ISO codes, but the full name might work too), you can get WebMP to shows up subtitles. It's more luck than intent that it works though (I won't remove it).

Ok, now i understand why it sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't work. Can i read something about the naming convention you mention because i have a movie that does load correctly and another one does not.

Found it somewhere:

Name.avi​

Name.srt​

​

And i understand that if the above does not work this must work:​

​

Name.de.srt​

Name.eng.srt​

Tries to extract a language from the filename (2 or 3 letter language code). If it is able to do so, it will set this language as the language of the subtitle track.​

 

[wouter1971]

I don't understand why the first movie with name.Dutch.srt works fine and another movie with a name.Dutch.srt doesn't work. Howcome?

 

[Oxan]

Hard to say without the full filename and the prefered language you configured.
