Local subtitles - laruche77 - 2020-01-22

Hi,

using the Amber skin, I can't load local subtitles when playing a video file.
There is no option to "Browse for subtitle...", as there is in default skin.

Is this a normal behaviour ?
Is there another way to import local subtitles (with a method that does not consist in naming both video and subtitle files the same...) ?

Thanks

@laruche77, thank you for your post.  I realized that the option to browse for subtitles (I never use it) was not there in the video OSD.  I have changed the behavior of the subtitles button so that it opens the subtitle settings dialog, which does have the option to browse for subtitles.  The change is already on GitHub (https://github.com/bartolomesoriano/skin.amber), in the Leia branch.  If you are not comfortable using GitHub and have the Amber repo (https://github.com/bartolomesoriano/repo.amber), please wait a couple of hours and the update will be in the Amber repo.

Regards,

Bart
