Download English Subtitles For Mx Player

[Marquez Feliciano]

Justfound a video on the net that can be viewed online, but can't be downloaded. Want to play it along with subtitles that I also found. Is there any program (either graphical or command-line) that can open an .srt file and show me the subtitles at proper time?

I tried using mplayer (mplayer -sub FILE.srt), but it exists immediately. Seems that it refuses to play subtitles when there is no video. I could create a blank 2-hour avi file that I could feed to mplayer, but I don't know a simple way to do that.

Penguin Subtitle Player is a standalone subtitle player which is suitable for using alongside online videos. It is open source and cross platform. Hope this helps.

When start playing the movie I then call the following event which iterates through the subtitles.

If you need to be able to pause your media player or use other functionalities, you would need to bind the media player events to this blueprint section.

Another issue Im having with the WD TV is subtitles for some films dont work - doesnt seem to be consistent either. Sometimes the subtitles than come with the film work, other times they wont. And downloaded subtitles more often than not dont seem to work.

Yeah, the subtitles are definitely in the same folder as the movie file.

As a test, on a couple of them I went so far as to rename the .srt file name to exactly match that of the movie file name, but it didnt seem to help.

My favorite DivX playback units are finally biting the dust. I've had this WDTV Play unit sitting on the shelf for at least 3 or 4 years. I set it up three days ago, and began putting it through the discovery phase. Not bad, certain familiarizing...

I tried unchecking 'enable sub-pictures' in the preferences menu, but this removed the subtitle user interface entirely, making it difficult to get subtitles on the occasions I really do want them (foreign films).

In the simple settings menu, go to "Subtitles/OSD" and under "Preferred Subtitle Language," enter none. Subtitles will no longer be displayed unless you ask for them! This works in VLC 2.2.1 and 2.2.4 (windows 7 and 10 respectively) for sure, and probably others too, but I have not tested it beyond those two.

Just wanted to say that you can do this using the "simple" options as well: it's tools / preferences / and then "subtitles/OSD" which is the 4th big button on the left of the preferences menu, right above "input/codecs."

Also, after doing this, then switching to "show settings: all" in the lower left, the "subtitles track ID" that Colonel Panic suggests, is set to -1, not 0, which could be why some folks are having trouble with it. You can manually set this to -1, to achieve the same result. Cheerio!

Is there a way to display multiple subtitles at the same time? It would help a lot while learning a new language. I have some *.mkv movie with two embedded subtitles, how would I turn them both on, so that one will be on the bottom and another one on the top? Or at least a fast switch with immediate text update without rewinding back would be nice.

Irrespective of how they were chosen (built-in or from an external file) each set of subtitles will be in its own "stream" when you play the video file. The streams are assigned consecutive, integer indices (1, 2, 3...). In general, the built-in subtitles will (logically) have the earlier indices. The stream indices, their languages (if the subtitle has a specified language), and whether the subtitle comes from an external file, are displayed in the terminal when you play your file with mpv. For example, after running mpv file1.mkv:

Knowing these indices, you can specify the "main" and secondary subtitles with the options --sid and --secondary-sid. For example, to display the English subtitles, from the previous example, as the main subtitles, and the French ones as the secondary ones, you can run (in a terminal):

By default, there aren't any keyboard shortcuts for cycling the secondary subtitles (in the way that you can cycle the "main" subtitles with j and J (Shift+j)). However, you can very easily add some.

then Ctrl+j will cycle your secondary subtitles in the same direction that j cycles the main ones (increasing subtitle stream index), and Ctrl+Shift+j will cycle them in the opposite direction J (decreasing subtitle stream index).

First, you need to turn them on, overall. Go to Tools > Preferences > Subtitles/OSD > Dual Subtitles (at the very bottom) > Align and change it to anything but unset. You may also need to adjust the offset (the adjacent setting).

When playing a video, you need to "Toggle secondary subtitle control" with the default shortcut Ctrl+Shift+V. (This means that the normal subtitle control shortcuts like v or Alt+v, for cycling between subtitles backwards and forwards, will now apply to the secondary subtitles, rather than the main subtitles. Pressing Ctrl+Shift+V again will toggle back to having these apply to the main subtitles.) Then, press v the right number of times to switch to the (secondary) subtitles that you want.

Another tool to merge subtitles is DualSub ( ). It works with SRT subtitles for input and output. It has many options for customization. In addition you can use it to translate subtitles to any language.

Alternatively you can consider KMplayer for Microsoft Windows. I never tried it, because I don't have a Windows, but apparently it is what always comes out top if you google for dual subtitle players.

Most video players do not have the ability to play two concurrent sets of subtitles at once. But luckily it is easy enough to combine two subtitles into one file online. At -bien.net/2srt2ass/ select the Spanish subtitle file you downloaded in step one, and add it as the top subtitle, and the English subtitle file as the bottom.

Also, SMPlayer can play two subtitles simultaneously. You can load subtitles via load options and then choose primary and secondary subtitles. This is my favorite since there are no keyboard shortcuts to memorize.

I had a similar question as OP except I wanted transcribe subtitles from a video and then translate them, combining the results into one file that would automatically play in VLC. It worked: Looking for a subtitle translator-&-merger to create dual-language subtitles.

Hi - I have the Samsung 55" TU7020 TV and whenever I watch anything through the USB/media player, it always plays things with the subtitles on... I have to manually switch them off EVERY time. Just wondering if there's anything I can do so the default setting would be to play things with the subtitles OFF? Thanks.

Hi - yeah, it's possible to remove the subtitles manually - but you have to go into the media player settings, select subtitles, then "off", then "OK", then return etc. ... the whole thing takes over 10 presses and it just gets a bit frustrating having to do it EVERY time, lol. I was just wondering if there's an option so the default subtitle setting on the media player is "off"...it would make more sense!? Cheers.

Even when you are not familiar or fluent in a foreign language, subtitles would be very useful for you to better understand the conversations or plots in a video. Different with retail Blu-ray discs or DVD along with multiple options in subtitle languages on the disc, videos that you can be available on the internet may have no subtitle file. Fortunately, you are able to search the internet or a third-party program to download responsive subtitles to match the video.

Most popular Media Player enables you to select a subtitle file to display along with video, such as VLC, KM Player, Zoom Player, GOM Media Player, SMPlayer, BS Player, Kantaris, Banshee Media Player and so on. But when it comes to videos, it seems not that possible for the audience to attach or upload a text transcript or timed subtitle file to videos. You could technically download the video to your computer, then play it in a media player together with the subtitle file but that would be too troublesome.

Why not adopt a standalone subtitle player that plays and overlays the subtitle over the streaming video? Standalone subtitle player are also useful to play two subtitles simultaneously when the media player that you're using can only load one subtitle at a time. Here we have top 6 free standalone subtitle players for online movies or downloaded videos for you to choose from.

There are many websites that provide subtitle downloading service for totally free, but you should not download subtitles from any website that you come across. In this section, we'll discuss five reputable subtitle download websites to help you.

Greenfish Subtitle Player is a small-size but very useful subtitle program. It used to be as one of the best standalone subtitle player ever, but its developer has quit the project. But you can still download Greenfish Subtitle Player on some reputable website such as Softpedia and so on.
