Hiding hard-coded subtitles
Hiding hard-coded subtitles
Some time ago, I found in the settings a good solution to hiding the hard-coded subtitles so that I could use a different language subtitle. I have, unfortunately, forgotten which setting or settings it was. Does anyone know?

I found it again and it works quite well. Simply go to the Subtitles menu (not the preference) and turn on "Background Opacity" to the highest level, and Background Color to black and the new subtitles will cover the hard-coded ones. It isn't perfect, but it is very close.

Re: Hiding hard-coded subtitles
Glad you found a solution. BTW these are also known as "Burnt in subtitles", in case you need to do a search in the future 
Providing logs, messages, configuration info (VLC, OS, Hardware) and a clear explanation of the issue always helps the problem solvers help you, even if they don't end up solving the issue. Just think what you would need if you were solving someone else's problem. Additional: Always looking for eager and capable MacOS X developers to join the VLC team - for more information see here.
