Vlc Chinese Subtitles Not Working
A similar question was asked, here: Subtitle are not working in vlc
In VLC, ctrl-P Subtitles / OSD, make sure Enable subtitles is checked and change the Default encoding to match your subtitle. Eg if your subtitle file is encoded as Big5 (popular for traditional Chinese subtitles) or ISO-2022-CN-EXT (popular for simplified Chinese subtitles), having a default UTF-8. Zuma's revende activation code.
But I have tried all the fixes, and none of them work for me. I am trying to use Chinese subtitles from OpenSubtitles. I get a series of square boxes. When opening the .srt file in text editor, I can read the Chinese. I have copied and pasted into another text file with .srt extension. No good. I've tried every encoding that looks like it makes sense in Vlc. I've also tried the bug fix that Arie Skliarouk suggested, but nothing works. Any tips?
- Yes, if you want to display subtitles of non-English languages –Germany, Russian, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, it’s highly possible that you encounter this trouble.
- During playback you can press g or h to adjust subtitle delay (adjust step is 50 ms). OS X v2.2.1 keys: 'h' (decrease delay, subtitles display after sound) and 'j' (increase delay, subtitles display before sound). If subtitle is ahead of sound, press g. If subtitle is behind sound, press h. Extended Settings. You can also set a specific delay.
