quicktime mpg file with srt subs

mpg file plays with quicktime but quicktime doesn't pick up the srt subtitle file of the same exact name(bar the ext of course)

i have perian and quicktime is all updated. perian works well with avi files.

yes i know that with vlc it works. just wondering why perian doesn't work with mpg files.

thanks for anyone who will be able to help.

 

no one?

 

useless lot you all are. no bloody answer. pathetic bunch.
