download and install VobSub in the computer system. This will allow
media players to recognize the subtitle file and read at the same time

media player on your computer system and open the video file. Make

subtitles do not appear during playback. When you use the VideoLAN VLC media player, it is advisable to
disable the option to automatically load the subtitle file. Instead,

feasible for standalone players DVD. To allow playback of files SRT in

video. This should update the list and reflect the exact number of
subtitles associated with the video file. Right click on the subtitle
