My Quick Time plays subtitle!

[hms84]

I think this is the first time you hear this
May be, But I'm sure of one thing
I was playing one J-drama on quick time
and I saw something unexpected, it plays subtitle!!
in the beginning I wasn't sure about it, so I played another movie to check
and it played it, with the subtitle!!
Screenshot is in the attachment!!
I'll add more attachment later

Cheers

I know that under Quicktime preferences, you can check a box to show Closed Captioning if available.

Judging by the screenshot, the files probably just had hard subs. (can an AVI even contain soft subs?)

Unless you are using perian, and playing a fileformat that supports subtitles, like mkv's, you are probably playing a hard subbed avi file.

Not Hard Sub

Hay,
I'm sure I'm not playing in hard sub
That’s why I'm surprised , I'll make screen recording to proof that
I'm at work now, I'll post them later when I'm back

Quick Time playing subtitle (UPDATED MOVIE)

I’ve done the video but I'm having trouble uploading it.
I don't have fast internet at home, so I use internet in my office!
And when I upload it to you tube or Google video I get file too large message
It’s about 131 MB, any one can help me?
Or give me a place to upload it there

Thanx

The video is online

Finally I've uploaded the video,
This is one of the strange (but good) features I found in Quick Time
It actually plays subtitle, in the video:
1- Play the avi file without subtitle.
2- Move the file to EN sub folder for the English version of the subtitle.
3- Again move the folder to AR sub to play with the Arabic version of the subtitle.
4- Move to NO sub folder for non subtitle play.
Tested on a standard Mac Pro with Mac OS 10.4.10, and Quick Time 7.2
Please don’t ask me how did I did it, because I don’t know!!

You just installed the new version of perian… that has support for srt subtitles.

[hms84]

YES, I did

OHHH MAN,
I did all this miss for this!
Yes I did install perian, it works great!
Even with Arabic sub too,
Because the only app that does Arabic sub is Chroma

Cheers
