Multiple .srt subtitle files in a Divx movie

[sam9s]

Hi,

I want to have multiple .srt subtitles files in a divx movie with a provision to switch between them and switch off subtitles altogether if I want to. I copied a divx file and a .srt file both with the same name on a dvdr and my player philips DVP5500s played them nicely, which means the player can read .srt files. Now I want to add multiple sutitles with a provision to switch between them or switch off the subtitles while playing the movie in my DVD player...............Please guide......Thanks in advance.

you could try name the srt files like
Movie.en.srt
Movie.fr.srt
Movie.de.srt
etc
Movie.avi

Thank you....I will try that, but how would I be switching between them, would the player give an option by it self I doubt that, n what about toggling the subtitles on and off, how r we suppose to do that........guideance needed.

I was wrong.....the player's subtitle button itself acted as the toggle switch for the sutitles, but still I have just one last problem........the sutitles are displayed above the black bar while watching a Divx movie.......is there a way to edit the .srt sutitles to get them displayed on the black bar itself..........can anybody help
