What kind of player are you using?
If you are using Windows Media Player, you have to intall east asian languages in regional and language option in Control Panel.
Otherwise, you have to install chinese media player(other than Windows Media Player).
Wait! Forget the second option.
To install chinese media player you need to install chinese character anyway.

Hi, Thank you for your reply. ok I have installed the east asian language within control panel, I have renamed the movie & sub the same name, using Viplay as the default video player within winxp. Unfortunately I get characters looking like this:
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:15,007
==你已经享受希望的电影？==
2
00:00:15,550 --> 00:00:31,565
-=翻译:法兰克彼得生=-
3
00:02:48,570 --> 00:02:50,632
这就是接触的感觉
Can you pls tell me what I'm doing wrong pls? Thanks
NB: Does WMP is the only media player that will work with this?

In WMP, press Play(menu bar) ->captions and Subtitles ->default and then change default language to Chinese and close WMP and open it and play the movie. See if it display the sub.
If it's not, go to control panel(regional settings), press Advaned and see if all the boxes are checked(whatever indicates chinese).
I believe there are Media players that are created by chinese guys, but as I said, if you cannot see the characters you might not be able to install the program.

The thing is I use a media player which was made by Korean and it's well known player in Korea. It's called "GOM player". I think it can display subs in different languages, but I've never tried other languages so not sure yet.
I will try to see if it works and let you know by tomorrow eve.

Hi, ok it seem the problem is not with player. But the font within XP, if I can open the srt file and if the language font is present, it should display the chinese char within the srt. But it doesn't at the mo, this is slightly tricky...I need to get back on this.
GOM player is very nice btw. Thanks for mentioning and many thanks for above posts.

There is an Multi-Lingual Disc for XP Windows which can be added to show "Simple and Traditional Chinese" plus other languages aswell. This let you set the desktop and other Chinese programs in Chinese in English Windows. I got an copy of the disc from Hong Kong but not sure how you can get hold of one. Download an copy from Chinese sites. If you can find one then get back to me !!! ki

VOBSub's (idx/sub) are bitmap based, they don't depend on fonts at all.
