I'm fairly sure neither of these programs will play SVCD selecetable subtitles. You need to check in a standalone player.

But, there got to be some programs that can play it in windows ?
or..

[corwin102]

I don't think so but you could try WinDVD

I've tried it in a standalone player now, it doesnt work..
Has anyone got any other suggestion how to add subtitles to a svcd without winsubmux? Thiiis is freaking me out

[sterno]

A lot of set-top players don't support selectable subtitles on SVCD. Of the ones that do, some only support CVD-style and others only support SVCD-style subs.

You are better just burning them in but that would require to re-encode so either go back to the source or if all you got now is an SVCD you will loose quality to re-encode to burn in the subs.
