I'm having this problem, too, only much, much worse. VLC takes more than a minute to load. Much more. And everybody who posts a solution either doesn't give enough detail to implement it ("Click on an icon that's buried several layers deep in the sub-menus. No, I'm NOT telling you where to find...

So, here'z the thing: I downloaded and installed GOM Player and started "Red Heat"...and it worked exactly as expected: English subtitles for the dialogue that was in Russian, no subtitles for the dialogue in English. And that was without turning anything on in the subtitle menu. So, one w...

I'm watching a DVD--"Red Heat", for the curious, but that's not the only movie with this problem--where some characters speak English and some speak Russian. VLC gives me two choices: either everybody has subtitles or nobody has subtitles; there seems to be no way at all to have subtitles ...

I've tried playing these DVDs using other programs and they work fine. So...something is up with VLC. WhatinHades is...

Look, maybe I can help out here, because it's happening to me too...I think. Let's start with a picture, so we're not talking past each other: https://i.imgur.com/buN3wyQ.jpg See how the none of the edges of the picture are touching the edges of the screen, the edges of the player window? That shoul...
