XBMC-Linux Beta 100912 Discussion and Bug Report

I see alot of comments saying subtitles are broken.
Just wanted to mention that I am not having any problems displaying subtitles embedded in MKV files.
I'm playing the mkv from my NAS through wired connection. I actually find it kind of annoying that I have to go in and disable it all the time, wish I could set it as disabled by default... then enable if needed.

Turn off the subtitles when playing a film, then duck into the video settings menu and choose "Set as default for all movies".

Everything is done from audiosettings

One thing I saw is that when you calibrate the video settings, by default the subtitle location is somewhere below the screen! So maybe your subtitles are working, they're just positioned too low.

If the problem which the others are experiencing is the same as what I'm seeing, XBMC believes there is no subtitles track embedded in the MKV. For example, when you visit the subtitles menu when a file is playing, the only option you see when selecting subtitle tracks is "none".

Have you checked under the "Audio" icon too ? there is a subtitles setting there.

THAT DID IT! Had to scroll for a long time for the subtitles to show in calibration. From a value of 900 to about 660...

Same here, I left my subtitles at a value of around 600
