[Feature Request] Option to show imbedded subtitles in file - MX Player

Hi guys, I'm currently watching something which I know already has embedded subtitles within the file. But when I go to the "Subtitle" option I only see options to find subtitle files (which doesn't help me because the srt is already embedded) or online subtitles, screenshot is pictured. An option to automatically show/switch off showing imbedded subtitles if it has them would be great. Cheers.

MX Player will automatically detect embedded Subtitles & external Subtitles ( if the name is same as video). Can you provide a bug report or sample file..?

Need suggestion for MX player pro and MKV with embedded subtitle

Hi,
I tried to search and look around in this forum and still cannot resolve my problem.
I just installed MX Player pro. I ripped and made one MKV movie file from bluray with embedded subtitles in the file.
I tested the file with my TV and DUNE HD player and also tested this file on my computer with XBMC, VLC media play. The movie can be played smoothly and I can control, select, enable, or disable subtitles as usual.
However, when I loaded the file to my Samsung Note 8, MX player pro can play movie smoothly and fine. The only problem is that there is no subtitle shown, although I selected or enabled subtitles.
I also tried enable and disable in Setting > Subtitle > Enable Subtile and Setting > Subtitle > Enable Embeded Subtiles , but it doesn't help.
Please suggest.

Did you check subtitle track button on the playback screen?
There may a speech balloon button on the upper right corner of the playback screen, if video have one or more subtitle tracks.

Hi bleu8888, do you mean the mini button on the right corner? There are H/W, subtitles, audio.
Yes I checked it. I enabled one, two, or sometimes even all of them, but no subtitle is shown.
Note: I just tested the file with "VLC for android" and it works as expected. All subtitles work fine.
Thus, I guess there must be some missing or incorrect configuration in my MX Player Pro. Please help.

Would you share your video file?
Also, could you post the media info as well?

Hmm, pgs subs shouldn't generally cause a problem... as bleu requested, mind sharing your file somewhere? If the file's big, could you clip out a few minutes and share that instead?

Feedback will be appreciated.
Thanks
Hi bleu8888
I installed it. It looks like an updated part, doesn't it? Anyway, it works as expected now.
Thank a lot!
You can use Avdshare Video Converter to removing subtitles from MKV with the help of an MKV Subtitle Remover named MKV Subtitle Remover.

[Q] Subtitles problem

Well. I'm a bit an anime fan. I tried watching an mkv video on my new tablet but it doesn't show any subtitles. There's a label beside the video SSA and I know it is within the video not a separate file. I tried searching for a fix but no luck. When I tried to view it in VLC, the subtitles show up.
How can I enable it or something? I'm kinda new to MX player.

[Fulfilled] mx player to auto-load subtitle from local/sd folder

hi to all,
i am wondering whether mx player developers could program the app so that it can search and auto-load subtitle files from local/sd folder in our android tablets or phones. this is an important feature when users stream video content from dlna servers that do not expose the subtitle files together with the video files. thus the subtitle could not played together with the video files.
this means users have to specify which folder in the local/sd storage the subtitles are stored in the mx player preferences. the subtitle files (srt files for example) have to be named the same as the names of the video files.
eg:
movie01.mp4 (streaming from dlna)
movie01.srt (local/sd folder in our tablet/phone)
i am not sure whether there are others experiencing this issue before but it there are any, this feature will be a great addition to mx player's long list of strong capabilities right now. thanks you.

It's already there.
By default MX Player uses <path of internal sdcard>/Subtitles (e.g: /storage/emulated/0/Subtitles)
you can easily change it from the Settings >> Subtitle >> Subtitle Folder
If any matching subtitles are found in subtitles folder MX Player will automatically load

Embedded subtitles are not working on MX Player

HI, Embedded subtitles have not been working on MX Player Pro anymore. They used to play fine when the subtitles box was checked but now there are no subtitles displayed. The information on the mp4 videos says 3GPP timed text subtitles.

Hi,
can you share a sample clip?
HI, I wasn't sure if you are asking for a link to one of the videos? I can't post a link on the forum yet, but if you go to jw.org under videos at the bottom of the page you can select any of the newer videos and it should have an option for subtitles.
I selected the subtitles box under the video and then downloaded it with Google Chrome onto my Android tablet.
It shows under info on mx player that stream #3 has subtitles codes 3gpp timed text subtitle. 72 bits/sec, english
If that's not what you meant by clips please let me know. Thanks

Please add support to load external SUP subtitle files

Hi. I want to load SUP subtitle files that doesn't contained in the video file, but MX Player won't show SUP files when selecting a external subtitle file. Since MX Player works well with SUP subtitles that contained in the video file, I think it won't be very hard to add this support. Thanks.
Plus: SUP subtitle file is described as “Picture based subtitle format used on BDs/HD-DVDs” in MX Player. Video files that contained a SUP subtitle file in it will shows a “PGS (Presentation Graphic Stream)” icon beside the file name.
