General Support K-Lite Codec Pack Other downloads Subtitles Q: Subtitles are not displayed in Windows Media Player on Windows 7 / 8 / 10 A: Short answer: Codec Tweak Tool >Media Foundation >Windows 95 Emulator. Disable for.mp4 and.mkv This should revolve most problems. Long answer: Since Windows 7, both Windows Media Player and Media Center make use of the Media Foundation framework instead of DirectShow for playing certain file types. As a result, DirectShow subtitle filters like DirectVobSub are not used. Media Foundation lacks native support for common subtitle formats. Media Foundation is used for several common file types such as: AVI, WMV, MP4, MOV, 3GP, and M2TS. Since Windows 10 also for MKV.
In case of AVI files, subtitles will be displayed if DirectVobSub (a.k.a. VSFilter) is installed. WMP will automatically switch from Media Foundation to DirectShow in that case. For the other file formats mentioned above you need to disable Media Foundation in order to be able to get subtitles. WMP will then use the DirectShow filters from the codec pack instead.
Warning: Disabling Media Foundation can break playback of the relevant file formats in applications that are only capable of using Media Foundation. For example Windows Store apps from Microsoft on Windows 8 and 10. Most people will only use WMP for playback, so this is not a big problem. If you use a 64-bit version of Windows, then we recommend to use the 32-bit version of WMP (which is actually also the default one in Windows) and only disable Media Foundation for 32-bit. Other applications that use Media Foundation are practically all 64-bits, which means they will have Media Foundation available as normal.
Additional tips: If still you have trouble getting DirectVobSub to load for external subtitles, then you also need to change the preferred decoder. Ibm Lotus Domino 8.5.1 For Windows 32 Bit English (cz5rten). Codec Tweak Tool >Win7DSFilterTweaker >Preferred decoders The correct setting to use is USE MERIT. Do NOT set it to a specific decoder, because then the subtitles will not work.
Just make sure your preferred decoder has the highest merit (in case you have multiple compatible decoders). The codec pack installer will automatically configure the preferred decoders for you. This step should only be needed if you have manually installed the codecs.
We recommend using Media Player Classic for video playback. That is capable of displaying subtitles without the need for all kinds of special workarounds. Q: How do I make the subtitles load and display automatically? A: All you have to do is give your subtitle files the same filename as your movie file. The part of the filename up to the first dot must be identical. If you do that, the subtitles will automatically be detected and displayed. For example: This is some cool movie.avi This is some cool movie.srt You can add something after the first dot, for example the language of the subtitle: This is some cool movie.English.srt This is some cool movie.German.srt Common subtitle file formats are: srt, idx/sub, idx/rar, smi, ssa, sub Q: Embedded subtitles are not displayed A: Right-click on the white LAV Splitter icon in the system tray (right-bottom of your screen).
