How can I switch off DVD subs when playing a movie? Every disc I play, MP automatically defaults to subtitles on. I would like it the other way around, so I have to switch them ON!

Yup but this seems to be a common problem to every MP-Newbie, two friends of mine had the problem. I think this should be disabled by default.

You can enable subtitle (even if they are disabled in configuration.exe) using the MCE or BlueTwo Video OSD (perhaps in other skins as well), but if you disable them from there and they were enabled in configuration.exe they will show up at every chapter change)

So the best configuration for that is "Disabled" in configuration.exe and enable them from the OSD when needed.

Have fun :D

    I second that (and already did it a few times as I also already answered several questions concerning that "problem" ;) .

    @CyberSimian Sorry, I missed your last post. I ended up doing a clean install on the client and all is well now. It still doesn't let me go back in time when I change channels but it does continue operating from that point on. I'm ok with that. Thanks for your help!

    I'm running 2.5 with the WMC skin. I have .mp4 files, along with the related .srt files in the same folder. I can watch the movies just fine. In past versions of MP, like 2.4x, I could press the More Info button on my remote twice, and on the second press, an option for showing/choosing the subtitles was listed. I'd select the...

    hm, weird. it can't access the file because its in use by another process... Wonder what that other one is. Can you try excluding the recording folder of all background processes? (f.e. defender/antivirus etc, and maybe (don't know if that is even a thing) from creating thumbnails) Edit: and is it always the second time it succeeds...
