Subtitles (.srt) for real media files?

Elliah · Nov 5, 2008

I want to play .srt files with my .rm and .rmvb files but can't seem to get them to work.
I've googled this for quite a bit and tried all the suggestions i could find like installing vobsub, setting options->output for realmedia video to directx 9, nothing has worked yet. when i go to subtitle language, the option is greyed out though...
i'm running windows vista sp1 and using media player classic with real alternative lite 1.90 installed. i do not have any other codec pack installed.
need help and lots of it..thanks

VLC media player often works for anything, i think it does find the subs when asked to do so, but never tried. r u only wantin to watch the files from pc?

Jus checked and VLC does support subtitles Download it from:-

ok so after more tweaking around i still couldn't get media player classic to display my subtitles although windows media player could, although the video seemed a little choppy in places...
so then i decided to hardsub my videos using easy realmedia tools but for some .rm files it hangs before finishing...any idea what could be causing easy realmedia producer to hang?
