Hi, I just moved from old 1.whatever version to 2.0.3 and now subtitles are not working properly - it does not display my language specifics and puts some crap instead of it. So what should I do? Thanks

Edit: Well hopefully I have found a 1.1.11 version and it works right there. Good job with the updates by the way...

Make sure to select the correct code page in the Preferences -> Subtitles & OSD -> Default Encoding option.
Save, exit and restart VLC for enabling it.

Thanks, I didnt restart the program after choosing that before.
