Wrong subtitles from local disk but ok from dvd media

[aleangleico]

I'm using Windows Vista and have a weird problem.

I have many movies ripped to an external USB Hard Drive in DVD format. When I play from this drive I can change the subtitles from the Windows Media or Nero Showtime menu, but I always plays the english subtitle.

If I burn the files in a DVD media and play from the DVD Reader, IT WORKS FINE!!!

So I think it has to do with region codes or something. I live in Mexico and my DVD is set to region 4.

Any ideas???

By the way, i tried firs with the included Nero codes, then wit Vista Codecs Pack 4.44 and later with klcodec370f


Thanks!

Try play with mpc or vlc. Select to Open DVD/folder and choose the video_ts folder(vob,ifo,bup files).

I tried mpc before with the same result. I tried vlc now and I can choose between 4 options

Pista 1 (english)
Pista 2 (Spanish)
Pista 3
Pista 4

If I select Pista 2, it shows the english subtitles. If I select the "Pista 4" , I get the spanish subtitles!!!

So, it's somehow solved. What is weird is, if this is wrongly ripped, why it works pefect burning a DVD...

Thanks for the help!
