[vinland]

Hi i was wondering hot to upload subtitles.I have some Divx movies and would like to watch them with subtitles.2 avi files and to parts of subtitles for each movie.thx

Burn all the files to a single disc as a data DVD. (I use Record Now). If the subtitle folders are in a format compatible with the Philips it will play them when you select subtitles from the remote handset.

You mean 5960?

Just put them on the disk with the right short name:

film.avi

film.srt

I got the subtitles with txt ending and the dvd does not read them .Anyway i can change the format to "srt"??

Take a look in our Subtitles Forum, especially the 'Stickys' at the top of the forum. Probably this one for starts: https://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=267416

I thought mine read .txt too, but I dont remember. But it only works right if you have the same name. Do not use long file names.

Also I think it won't take txt or srt over a certain file size, like 150kb.

Get a free program, VLC & test your subs first.
