Description
Summary of the bug:
'-sub <file>' not working when mkv has a subtitle track
Tested in mplayer 2:1.1+dfsg1-0ubuntu3
How to reproduce:
video.mkv has an embedded subtitle. ie:english
somefile.srt is another subtitle ie:spanish
% mplayer video.mkv -sub somefile.srt
What do I expect:
somefile.srt should be added to the subtitles tracks and selected by default.
What happens:
somefile.srt is not loaded
somefile.srt is not shown in the subtitles tracks ("j" keypress)
Only the embedded subtitle can be chosen.
Workaround:
Rename somefile.srt to videoname.srt and place it in the same folder as videoname.mkv.
Mplayer will show the subtitles if sub auto load is enabled.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
I cannot reproduce this issue.
Note that mplayer2 is a separate project from MPlayer.
Please try with the 1.2 or 1.3 release, if it still happens reopen.
