don't worry, when you open that movie again it will be resumed at the same point you left it, and with the same settings: audio track, subtitles, volume. So you start to watch a movie but you have to leave. One of the most interesting features of SMPlayer: it remembers the settings of all files you play. Just install the player and you'll be able to play all formats without the hassle to find and install codec packs. Oh right, for this to work with chinese subtitles, you need to change line 125 and/or 128 of the script and supply -subcp enca:zh:BIG5 as an mplayer option, as per this post.SMPlayer is a free media player for Windows and Linux with built-in codecs that can play virtually all video and audio formats. This will produce a file called yourmovilefile-bilingual.ass that you could then load with mplayer (or whatever other player you want) to get simultaneous dual subtitles. merge2ass.sh yourmoviefile.format sub1.srt sub2.srt
You can also just run the script without arguments and it’ll show a nice help message. Make it executable, then supply the video file, the first subtitle file, then the second. Yuki is sad all this is harder than she wanted What it does is it takes two different subtitle files and smushes it into a single ass file that basically shows the first subtitle file at the top of the screen and the second subtitle file at the bottom, something like this: I eventually found the solution in the form of a script called merge2ass ( Source).
So I found myself needing to have both english and chinese subtitles on at once today and struggled with it briefly. at least, I’m positively definitely trying to really write a proper post and push it out as soon as I’m positively capable of doing. (I know I haven’t written a real post in a good while and this doesn’t quite count. Well, with any player that plays ass subs really, but the procedure requires Mplayer :)
