SRT showing only timeframe ?

Postby Serville » 11 Jun 2009 06:15

I tried to play a movie with SRT file with VLC 0.94. I have followed every instructions, but I still couldn't make it work.
Somehow, the English subtitle only shows the timeframe instead of the text.
I tried everything, but nothing works. Where is my mistake ?
Help me please

And if issue still exist with newer version, could you share the problematic subtitle file to us?

This looks like that problem where some editors save the SRT file with a , instead of the . in the timecode. I THINK we added something to 1.0 to take care of that, but i'm not 100% sure. In any case, those files are not VALID srt files, regardless of which players can handle them.
