Subtitles: gone WRONG.

[Hi_BOb]

Hello, My name is bob. I just downloaded Media player classic and I set it all up everything works find with sound and video. no problems yet only subtitles.... I was watching kill bill latly and I noice like when all then it wasnt in english there was no subtitles.. I looked in the menu and I seen that there was a place to download subtitles for movies so I downloaded the file for kill bill V2 but when I put to "load subtitles" I get a stupid message as the following...
" To load subtitles you have change the video renderer tpye and reopen the file.

-DirectShot: vmr7 or vmr9 renderless

-RealMedia: special renderer for realmedia, or open it through DirectShow

-Quicktime:dx7 or dx9 renderer for Quicktime

-shockwave: N/a "

so is there a set up I have to do!?! like if you got the settings right for it could you like screen shot it for type it out?! any help would be nice

Yes you need to change your settings. If you look around you'll find media player classics options menu.

View->Options---Playback->Output

lol how does that make any difference

MPC is just a lightweight counter to WMP. It looks like the MP from 98. It's meant to. I prefer it over gaudy WMP10.

Anyway, if you look in on your taskbar when running a video, there should be a gree arrow down where your clock is. Right click that and there you can set your subtitles. Thats how it works with mine atleased.

MPC is perhaps the most flexible media player out there, if you know what you're doing. It has about a gigaoption available to the user that most players don't give you access to, like:

Process priority
Every command has customizable hotkeys
Support for WinLIRC or uICE remote controls
Which video and audio renderers to use
Rendering and resizing method
Map input audio channels arbitrarily among the output channels
Time shift audio
Audio decoder precision
Video deinterlacing method
Filter overrides (pass your media through any DirectShow filter on your system)
Subtitles (default or custom placement, buffering, colors, fonts, transparency, etc)
Automatic downloading of subtitles from selectable online database
A pixel-shader compiler that applies your pixel-shader to the media as your write it
Easily stretches or shrinks image while playing (good for files that were anisomorphic or were for a different pixel-ratio, and the compressor didn't take it into account)
...and a few others I didn't feel like describing.

Plus, it's not a huge install. It's not even an install at all, actually. It's just a single 5-megabyte executable.

I highly recommend it as a good light-weight media player for people who don't care if their media player opens Microsoft's webpage of music samples, don't care about "visualizations", don't want their player to take up unnecessary memory or HD space, want a whole lot of options, want one of the handy options (audio time shift can be a lifesaver on crappy files), want to play around with writing single-texture pixel-shaders, or just want a good interface (I like how the scroll wheel adjusts volume, for example).

using Video VLC media player or BS player, both free and great multi-format support

i personally use VLC
