movie.cd1.srt

thanks for your reply but that wouldn't help any as the subs are embeded on the video file.the codec used on the pc to view the subs is some vsfilter.dll.

yes but that is on the pc. on your xbox you must give your avi and srt the same name exept the extention.
see second post.

if the subs are encoded into the actual avi file then they are called "hard subs", "soft subs" generally mean a seperate file with timing instructions.

[elupus]

actually.. hardsubs are only those that are encoded into the videoframe.. softsubs could still be contained in the same file.. we only support mkv, ogg, vob for that.. avi's embedded softsubs is not supported.

please submit seperate feature request for "directvobsub, vobsub embedded in avi" and "srt subtitles embedded in avi" to mplayer (small sample is required!
you can do this via mplayer's bug-tracker under 'severity' "enhancement", and/or via their mplayer-dev-eng mailing-list if you put "[request]" first in the subject.
