I have a question about these revised subtitles. I renamed the original srt file in the folder, copies the revised subs to that folder, and removed 'edit' from the revised srt file so that the name would be the same as the avi file.
So far so good ... they work, but now when I open my bit torrent program (Azureuz) the files I added the revised subs to have a "data missing" error message . I tried a 'change directory' to link with the avi file again, but that does not fix the file.
Can anyone who knows Azureuz explain what is happening and how I might be able to fix it.

| lorac, you're having that problem because the revised subs obviously aren't the same ones that came along with the torrent. I hope you know that you don't have to remove the "edit" from the file name. If you're using vobsub, both versions of subtitles will show up and you can choose which one you'd like to use.

No, I did not know that I could leave "edit" in the name. I will try your suggestion with episode 18, the next one I'ml watching. I must agree that the old subs have a lot of misspelled words and poor grammer, but then I 'm used to watching Hong Kong movies that aren't much better!
Odd that if the name is the same as the old one, Azureuz does not see it as the same.
thanks for the info.

DirectVobSub supports various naming schemes. I give srt as an example subtitle suffix.
1. same filename: movie.avi and movie.srt
2. same filename with language tag: movie.avi and movie.LANG.srt
3. above in a subtitle directory: movie.avi and [SUBDIR\]movie[.LANG].srt
you can configure various absolute and relative paths in the "path"-tab of the DVobSub properties
Thus, DVobSub would load all these for an video called movie.avi:
movie.srt
movie.english.srt
movie.french.sub
movie.korean.smi
movie.fansub.ssa
subtitles\movie.english_edited.srt
c:\subtitles\movie.english_edited_v2.srt
Btw, I really like to hide the subtitles in a subtitles subdirectory, especially when i have many different languages.

So why are the instructions to have the avi and subtitle file named the same, together in a folder, or or in the same file.
I discovered recently that FFDShow will play subtitles too .... that after someone posted ssa files for missing subs on one of the epsodes of Beautiful Days. It thought that would be a problem, but it just played them, and then I tried VobSub and it played them also!
Ah, the mysteries of life ...

well, that is the advantage of DVobSub only. Other players that can play subtitles themself (and don't use the VobSub filter) are more restrictive. Since different players may handle subtitles differently the common usage is to have the same name for the video and the subtitle. This way the subtitles will get auto-loaded with the most players.
People who read the VobSub documentation know all this of course.

The revised (=edited) ones are better than the original ones, of course.
I fixed all of the errors I found (spelling & grammar), improved the english a little, and corrected the names in some episodes.
The original subs are just still here in case you still need them for seeding in case you have deleted them accidently (see posts above).

Actually Vobsub worked so seemlesly from the beginning that I had no need .... but I will take your suggestion to heart and get to know the program better.
