Neilcnx Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I tried asking for help by instructions on how to load movie dvd with subtitles even though the whole thing can be done on VLC. I couldn't get it done. So Im humbly asking if someone would spend some reasonably priced time with me to deal with this and another few annoying issues.

delphioracle Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Dump Windows 10, install windows 7. Or look around to find free alternatives that let you control your machine. VLC player as far as I am concerned is the best free player. https://alternativeto.net/software/windows-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want someone to come to your house and sort it out then it would help to say exactly where you are located ...eastern Thailand is quite big ! with the movie playing right click the mouse subtitle add subtitle file navigate to where the subtitle file is stored and open if the movie and subtitle file are named the same before the . (extension) then the subtitles should auto magically play. for subtitle you can download them from www.opensubtitles.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but seriously, I do music production on my PC, but the Program I use will only run on Windows, and by far best on Windows 10. This will apply to most 'professional' users. I tried Linux Mint and OK, I could get emails, surf the net, do simple Word and Spreadsheets, and that was about it. Agree about VLC, but will it run on Lunux or Ubuntu, I don't know, you tell me please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilcnx Posted October 30, 2018 Author Share Posted October 30, 2018 I'm living in Yasothon-about an hour from Ubon, quite a way from Pitsanalok. Maybe we could use teamviewer. I have short term memory problems bit I think if i could see it done once and ask questions, i could take it from there. I live in Yasothon which is far from everywhere but maybe if we could use teamviewer, it could work. As I said, I'd be happy to transfer a reasonable fee for your trouble. I have little to do each day and watching the same DVDs over and over is ..well you can imagine. Let me know what you think and however it works out, thanks for responding.

Daffy D Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Hi Neilcnx Nothing wrong with Win10 and VLCPlayer. I have this setup and works just fine. Don't know why some people instead of keeping quiet when they have no answer to the actual question insist on things like "dump that and go back to old system" or my favorite stupid answer "change to Linux" like that is going to solve anything. Getting back to your problem. Where are you getting your DVD's from? Are they actual discs or are you downloading from the Internet? Are they actually DVD or some other file type like .avi or .mp4? Doesn't really matter as VLCPlayer can handle just about anything. Where are you getting your subtitle files from? Are they on the disc, that's what you are using or do you download them separately? If you have separate movie and sub files, or even if the subs are included in the movie file you may need to select subs from the VLCPlayer menu. If your sub file is separate from the movie select "add subtitle file" navigate to where the file is and click to add. Hope this works for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And those games could be your problem. Where did you get them from, or who installed them for you. Many many games come with loads of unwanted add-ons which really can slow everything down. Uninstall those games, run C Cleaner, it doesn't take much learning, and see if it helps. Or try to reset Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
