2 sets of subtitles - Mr.McGee - 2012-11-30

Hi,

Is it possible to have 2 sets of subtitles enabled for a movie?

The reason I would need it is as follows:

Native english speaker and native french speaker watching a movie in english but one of the characters speaks in another foreign language that requires subtitles for the native english speaker at that point.

Hope that makes sense Smile

No, but there is a work around if you want to o a bit of effort. Most external .srt subtitle files can be edited with something like notepad++ and will allow viewing of multiple .srt files at the same time, Given that, and using a bit of 'common logic' you could build your own 'special' .srt file with cut & paste techinques. For subtitles embedded into a movie, you would be out of luck unless you could get a hold of the required .srt files for that movie. Give it a shot, it's not that difficult of a task.
