There are many sites dedicated to subtitles available on the Internet, some more or less orderly and updated. These subtitle files often contains extensions ".srt" and also ".sub" or ". ssa." To read those files as a subtitle it’s not too complicated, simply follow the guide.
With Windows Media Player
First we must rename the file subtitles (subtitle.srt) into film title (mymovie.avi). In order to identify and modify the extension file in the windows explorer, click on the "Tools" then "Folder Options."
In the "View" tab, locate the line "Hide file extensions for known file types" We'll have to uncheck the box without forgetting to apply the changes.
Now go to folder where your subtitle file is located, right click on that file and choose Rename
Include then the title of the film while paying attention to keep the extension ". srt". You get two files bearing the same name, each with its own extension.
Last step, download the software Vobsub (VobSub is a small program that lets you launch a film and subtitle in same time) and install this program, this little program automatically binds video file with its subtitle when files are placed and appointed with previous steps. It’s now sufficed to open the film using Windows Media Player, the player takes care of the rest.
VLC Media Player
With VLC player, the operation is simpler because there is no need to change the file. Simply open the player and click File. Then select from the menu "Open File (advanced)".
Then, in the first line find the video file you want to see then check the "Use a subtitle file" and find the file subtitles.
Enter by clicking on "OK".
NOTE: VLC can also shift a few seconds the launch of a subtitle, forward or backward, to correct a problem resynchronization. With version 0.86, this player also leaves the possibility of throwing the subtitle in the window when a video is being played, synchrony is then automatic.
