Subtitle problem in Xine
Hello.
I've got a problem with loading subtitles when playing films with Xine. When I chose from the menu "open/subtitles" it shows files but after selecting one nothing happens. Well to be exact the film restarts but still no subs. I have no idea if it is a problem with the format of the sub file or with Xine. I use Slackware 12, xine-ui 0.99.5 and xine-lib 1.1.7. Any help will be much appreciated (can't understand chinese nor japanese but love asian films). Thanks very much. |
Not a delicate solution. Open the video with
Code:
xine file.avi::file.srt |
Hi.
Nope, sorry, this solution doesn't work. There are no errors in the console but in Xine logs I found: Quote:
I already patched xine-lib to version 1.1.11.1 from the slackware site and have the Mplayer essential codecs pack in a dir where Xine can find it. Is there anything else I should do to see the subs or what. Thank you. |
Hm the double colon (::) thing didn't work but I use gxine.
This worked though: Code:
gxine file.avi file.srt |
another syntax to specify srt file
This syntax worked for me:
Code:
xine videoFileName.avi#subtitle:subtitleFileName.srt I ran across this syntax specification at the home page for the Totem player (I would post the URL, but the forum won't let me since this is my first post). I tried the same syntax for xine and it worked. The double-colon delimiter ludist recommended worked for me too. The space-delimited version that 1veedo used did not work for me, but I'm using xine, and don't have gxine installed. |
