Are you guys even doing anything about this problem. Im running XP and OSX 10.3.4 and your subtitles aren't working.
-I had problems playing the subtitles as well on version .7.0
i downloaded the latest nightly release at
http://vthr.via.ecp.fr/~videolan/
as it is suggested by a moderator on another part of this forum (which has a search option and is fully browseable and comprehensive) and got it working. It took me about 15 minutes.
Somoene posted here a good "diagram" with screenshots from the proggie.
Those steps are the exact same ones i did, and it's working now: XVID format, .sub subtitles.
Try reading the forum calmly. These guys developed the best multi-platform player around (im on windows xp, and its the bestest windows player ive ever used) and they take suggestions!! and they DO work on them!! Keep it up VIDEOLANNERS. :
