The VideoLAN Forums

I am running VLC "2.0.2 Twoflower" on XP SP3.

Usually, I get subtitle files in one of two folders - either "subs" or "subtitles". These are the usual names of the sub-folders - the parent folder contains the video file.

So I want to tell VLC to always look in either the "subs" or "subtitles" folder for the subtitles file. But VLC only loads the subtitle if I specify only one path. (Of course, VLC always loads the subtitle if it is in the same folder as the video file, but I want to keep the subtitles separate.)

In the field "Subtitle auto-detection paths" in "Tools, Preferences, Subtitles/OSD", I have tried entering (and then saving) "subs subtitles", "subs, subtitles", "subs ; subtitles" and probably a few others!

Please can you tell me the syntax for entering multiple paths to subtitles.

Regards,

Fred.

"subs" or "subtitles" should work in 2.0.2

"subs" or "subtitles" should work in 2.0.2

Strange - I could have sworn I'd replied already to this topic!

Anyway, thanks for the replies and, yes, "subs, subtitles" in "Tools, Preferences, Subtitles/OSD" works.
