  1. Hello,

    I have a hardware media player (TV Star T1000 - cheap stuff, with DVB-T tuner).

    The problem is that almost none of my SRT subs get displayed when playing the movies.

    The only SRT that works is this 4months.srt, which I uploaded.
    I also uploaded itl.srt, which doesn't work (but works everywhere else I tried it, including in some old Yamada DVD player).


    So, I'd like to know what is so special about 4months.srt that it works. (It's definitely not the file name, because I tried renaming them.)

    Also, when I try to load 4months.srt in Subtitle Workshop it says it's a bad subtitle or unsupported format.

    It looks just like a regular subtitle file in Notepad... What am I not seeing?

  2. Solved. It was because 4months.srt was saved in UNICODE and the others were either ANSI or UTF-8.

    So the players wants the subs in unicode.

    If you have any other tips or thoughts, tho, feel free to post them.
