Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.0) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Hi, currently, if I want to see an SRT subtitle, it has to be the same name as the movie, and must be located in the same directory. This approach has problems: 1. it is not discoverable. (I have to read the docs; the GUI does not mention subtitles) 2. it does not work if my movie is on a CD (I cannot change the name of files on a CD). 3. it is not possible to activate and deactivate subtitles dynamically (useful if I am not mother tongue and there is a single line I don't understand)
I don't get 1 and 2. Doesn't the 'Sub title' box on the Source|URL panel on the config dialog (click on configure icon from toolbar) work for you?
Actually I had not found it, since it is in the configure dialog. I would have expected to find an option in the menu... So I would say point 2 is solved, but point 1 kind of remains. (After all, I hadn't discovered the option.) Thanks for the attention.
It would be wery nice to have "Load subtitle" entry in menu. In Windows(c) players, it's very common but in linux i have seen such option, only in very ugly, xine gui. That is odd. Or maybe there should be some kind of automatic recognition of opened file ? (when *.txt file is selected, it would be treated as subtitles). Thanks for your work!

If a new maintainer wants to step up and take care, the project is archived here: https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/kmplayer You can just clone it in your private namespace on invent.kde.org and if you have started to work on it and fixed/implemented something get it reviewed and the project unarchived. Sorry for the inconveniences.
