The problem with the player was that even in the previous Rom releases, although srt subtitles were recognized and shown in the phone screen, the couldn't be shown from the AV OUT to the TV.
Now the player in the JD1 ROM does not support any subtitles, although there is a subtitle choise in the players menu....
Is there any way to have srt subtitles that are shown from the AV out to the TV??
The player can support SAMI subs, but still can't show the subs to TV via the tv out...

Hi all
I wolud like to ask you have I can see subtitles via HDMI conector on my TV? I can see just video without subtitle. Subtitles are just in S2 screen but no in my TV screen. I tried mvideo player and Rock plazer but still the same....
subtitles
Hi,
Subtitles are presented only on the phone screen because they are rendered for the phone display.
In order for the subtitles to be shown on the screen i guess the video player must have support for rendering the subtitles over HDMI as an overlay (similar to how streamers do this).
I suggest sending an email to the video player developer for more details...
Thanks,
Do you know any player which can do it?
You have two options:
a) Use a video player with software decoding (MoboPlayer).
b) Extract the subs (what format are they in) to the same directory as the video and name it the same as the vid, and the stock video player will play the subtitles (with annoying transparency). If you don't see them, press Menu while a video is playing and you will see the subs setting.
I've tried a for awhile now on ways to get around this, but these are easiest ones. The other options would be to either stream the video from your PC to your phone (not viable for me as HD vids lag on my connection, but ymmv) or hardsub the videos yourself (would take about an hour or 2 depending on the size).
Oki i will try... Tx
hi all, I tried to play a 720p avi movie on windows 8 today but there was no sound. I booted back to windows 7 and tried again and the sound works.
I would like to make it work on windows 8. does anyone have any idea why this is happening?
Thanks everyone!
The magic word here is "codecs". Haven't used Windows 8 myself but I am pretty sure you need an AC3 or DTS codec depending on the movie you are trying to watch. It also depends on which player you are trying to watch the movie with. Try using Media Player Classic - Home Cinema Edition which has all the codecs needed to watch HD material. If, however, you don't want to change players, then install ffdshow or ac3filter. These codecs will work with any Directshow player.
Codecs would be one issue. What software are you using to play the film?
it may be only a codec issue, i just tested some Avi movies i have and i found some had sound and some dont.
But like in Win7, in this Dev Preview I installed my regular player PotPlayer.
and you wouldn't have any trouble since it has codecs included.
of course other player may do the job.
but you can get Potplayer english version from here:

vlc will play most of the hd movies. And yoiu might not need codecs
Thanks for everyones help. I just installed ac3 codec and sound is working perfectly in windows media player.
I threw some MKV files on my N7, but the MX (v 1.7.8) wont support DTS audio, hence there is no sound.
I tried to do this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769799 but no go. still doesnt work.
downloaded this MX Player Codec (ARMv7 NEON) still nohing
what should i do to make it work?
BS Player still supports DTS.
BS player wont show the movie on the wide screen when i rotate the tablet and i didnt see any option to change that
MX player supports DTS when you give it a custom codec. I've used the neon.zip from this post and it works perfectly.
DicePlayer with "libffmpeg.so" as "Custom plugin".
Having the same issue, I downloaded BS Player and the sound works fine with it.

Is the stock video player supposed to display subtitles from .srt files (named the same as the .mpt file)? If not what format should the subtitles be in the mp4 container? I know one can burn them in but I'd like to have the option to turn them on/off - not sure it's even possible as I don't see any menus/settings in the stock player but maybe I'm missing something obvious.
Don't think you can man. I just installed VLC from the play store. It's beta but it works best.
I know there are many choices of much better players (MX Player, Dice, Mobo, BS, VLC, etc.) I'm just trying to understand how "crippled" the stock player really is, that's all.
I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this in, or instead the MX Player forums, but I keep reading persistent claims that people are successfully bitstreaming lossless (TrueHD and DTS-HD-MA) audio to their AVR via the MX Player app on NVidia Shield.
My library consists of uncompressed Blu Ray rips made using MakeMKV. I take the lossless audio codec whenever available.
For the life of me, I can't seem to get proper playback. If I enable HW+, video plays with no audio. If I disable HW+ in favor of "HW", I get neither audio or video.
I haven't downloaded or installed any extra codecs specifically for MX Player yet... currently, within settings, it says I have "Use ARMv7 type custom codec".
Anybody having success with this care to expound on what settings are making this work?
