Questions about Adding Subtitles to Movies.


Recommended Posts

Hi All.

I am a bit new to the subtitles scene and I have 2 questions to ask:

1- I tried downloading an (SRT) subtitles of a movie. And placed it in the same folder as the movie itself. I tried running the movie using Windows Media Player, and I found that the Subtitles appear on the screen duplicated (As you can see in the attached image). But when I tried running it in GOM Player. The subtitles appeared perfectly.

Why? How can I fix the problem with Windows Media Player?

2- How can I burn the movie with the subtitles to a DVD?

I am using:

Windows Vista Home Premium.

ffdshow

Windows Media Player (Latest)

GOM Player (Latest)

Thanks guys.

The easiest way to burn a movie to DVD with subtitles IMO is DVDFlick.

As for the double subtitles appearing... are you sure that the original movie file didn't have the subtitles already harddcoded? I know that the GOM player uses it's own internal codec's and may not call ffdshow to display external subtitles. Hopefully someone else will be able to help you more with this :p

Edit: just realized the date you posted this... Hopefully you were able to find a solution...

    • Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm

    • If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.
    • Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
