Mplayer OGM with subtitles and dual audio

fbenites · 12-15-2003, 02:46 PM

Hi, I´m having some problems with Mplayer and some .Ogm files with two audio channel and three subtitles channels. The file plays ok with the first audio channel and no subtitles, but I don´t know how to change the audio and turn on the subtitles. Do anybody knows how to do it? Thanks in advance!

I have a few problems with ogm files too,what I did was use mplayer -sid # (replace with a number) filename.It isn't always consistant either,sometimes -sid 2 worked,sometimes 3.So fiddle around with it and see if it works.

Thanks! I've discovered how it works: -sid (and the number of the subs channel) and -aid (number of the audio channel)

Now I have other question: How can I change the size and the color of the subtitles? I don't like white subtitles and they are too small to see in the TV

Hi there,
you can try...
man mplayer ....
you can find the answer about installing new fonts for subtitles...
~/.mplayer/font - mplayer will look here for new fonts..
