hello all, I used WMP to play mkv, even though the subtitle is showing but it's not in the format as it intended. I can tell because VLC shows a nicer render of the subtitle, however, subtitle wouldn't sync well with the audio if I use VLC to play. i have CCCP project codec pack installed. as well as CoreAVC for h264 rendering, it plays very smoothly.

another thing is i notice VLC uses Direct3D output when playing mkv, is there a way to make it use CoreAVC or even ffshow because Direct3D sucks

VLC shows a nicer render of the subs?

First of all make sure you have the latest CCCP. Then go to CCCP settings, 2nd page, check reset settings and re-register filters, apply. Then test if it works in CCCP's MPC and Zoom. They can be found in Start -> Programs -> CCCP.

direct3d is a video renderer, coreavc and ffdshow are decoders
vlc uses ffmpeg (same as ffdshow uses) for decoding

Hmm, VLC usually renders the $hittiest version of subtitles...No style and no-frills...Sometimes they even overlap when 2 things are subbed on the screen at the same time...

Use MPC that came with CCCP. it has worked perfectly for every file i've collected over the past few years. simple fast and no bs.

Get CCCP?

blahbl;ahblah

aznndave · 2008-09-23, 20:36

i have the latest installed

Looks like it's either not loading or not using the embedded fonts for some reason. What's your system locale?

aznndave · 2008-09-24, 17:42

Chinese (Traditional, Taiwan)

I need to set Chinese because lots of songs in iTunes are in Chinese & Japanese character... maybe this could be the problem?

edit: i just confirmed that locale is not the cause. I'm sorry I thought I had the latest CCCP installed... now the subtitle appears as intended. =p
