How to playback the video with ripped subtitles.

After completing the previous steps, you should be left with a ".idx and .sub" file. Go ahead and move your video file (.avi or other) to the same directory (or vise versa, move your .idx and .sub files to the directory of your .avi file). Make sure all your files have the same name (Rename them if you have to). (Screen Shot Below)

After that go ahead and double click your video file (.avi or similar) and it should now play with subtitles. Not all players (ie.Windows Media Player, Nero Showtime, etc.) will be able to play it with the subtitles. That is why I recommend Media Player Classic (MPC). If you have MPC, right click the .avi file, then choose "Open With", and choose Media Player Classic (MPC). (Screen Shot Below)

Thats it! It should now play with the subtitles. (Screen Shot Below)

i wrote: "rund1132 vobsub.dll,Configure" in c:\windows\system32 and i got a message that goes like this: "RUND1132" is not reconized as an internal or external command, operable file or batch file

kfir: It's rundll32 (two L's, not two 1's)

can you please help me with my problem? i tried to open my sub file, but it didn't work because the file was in srt. and not ifo. form.. HELP PLEASE, thank you.

pinkerz: SRT files are subtitle files that have already been ripped and converted. You can follow the instructions on page 3 of this guide (even though it's for SUB files, but the instructions are the same as SRT files) to playback the subtitles.

yooooo got a question yoooo. i have a SRC file and AVI file both named the exact same thing in the same folder but when i use any player including Media Player Classic nothing works with subtitles. any suggestions?

my virtualdub doesnt have the "TextSub 2.x" filter...what can i do???

e.Cho: Go to the first page of the guide and follow the installation instructions, or download the WinRAR package and extract it to your VirtualDub's plugin directory.

i installed it and the subtitles do come in, but they come in like 3 seconds late, how can i make them even with the sound?

Hi! I have a srt file but it won't play on the MCP what should I do?
