It's as simple as pie, you give it the same name as your avi movie, followed by whatever you want as long as the beginning is common, you put it in the same directory as the movie and you launch BSplayer, that’s it!
So either you extract the subtitles from a real DVD, for this you need to practice an optical character recognition pass, I recommend Subrip 1.50 at http://zuggy.wz.cz/ as well as the my car matrix fonts (ask me for them if you can't find them anymore).
Or look for subtitle files on the net (http://www.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-547962-probleme-audio-avec-mon-divx#24 )
Sometimes the subtitles may not be well synced, so you can edit them with Subsync, Subrip, Subtitle workshop or others. There's no shortage of options: http://dvd.box.sk/index.php?pid=soft&prj=list&tools=subtitle&pol=20

My favorite format is *.SRT. You will find precise answers to all these problems in the previous responses:
http://www.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-445791-sous-titre-divx
Bsplayer 1.37 was free, 1.39 (http://www.bsplayer.org/ ) is linked to an adware WhenU that you should remove immediately as soon as you can.
If you have plenty of subtitles in all languages, you can create a script file for bsplayer to associate all your subtitle files with different languages as described at http://www.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-794809-filtre-virtualdub#1
Each subtitle will appear in the context menu of Bsplayer.
If you have OGM movies, the subtitles are probably already integrated along with chapter references and other languages, all selectable at your fingertips in bsplayer, but you need to have installed the OGGDS0995.EXE and SUBTITDS1400.EXE filters
Otherwise, you will find plenty of ideas at http://www.doom9.org and http://www.free-codecs.com

Hi
I've been following this forum for 3 days trying to figure things out on my own... to avoid bothering my dear neighbors again... I still can't read .idx and/or .sub files at the same time as the downloaded movie in original version from microtorrent... I rename them, I open them with VLC or media player... nothing works... what should I do?
THANK YOU

Hello Jalk,
the idx file contains the timing references of the subtitles and sub the textual format. I prefer the SRT format. There are plenty of conversion programs...
If we're talking about an external subtitle file to the film, sometimes it plays automatically if the beginning of its name is exactly the same as that of the film *.avi. I used to gather multilingual subtitles in a subdirectory and create a *.bsi script file to launch all of that (I gave the link above in my first reply). But if we're only dealing with a subtitle from time to time, here’s the procedure for different programs:
VideoLan VLC v8.6c (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/VideoLAN.htm) allows you to read subtitles, just open the 'File' menu | 'Open file (advanced)' then check the 'Open a subtitle file' box and browse the directory to associate your subtitles with the film. There’s even a submenu that allows you to delay or advance the subtitle scrolling relative to the film. This software comes with its own codecs and installs easily.
Media Player Classic also provides access (https://www.01net.com/telecharger/windows/Multimedia/lecteurs_video_dvd/fiches/27394.html but you need to have installed DivX codecs beforehand, MPC is indeed included in the k-lite codec pack available on www.free-codecs.com. I’ve always found this software a bit dull, so skip ahead to the last paragraph.
Windows Media Player 7, 8, 9 or 11 offers no direct support for subtitles, it’s a heavy, ugly, and cumbersome American product from Microsoft. European communities have sanctioned its omnipresence which harms free competition.
WinAmp plays videos but is not suitable for reading subtitles.
BSplayer, which has ruled for years regarding subtitles, has become a commercial product; its free version (currently 2.25 www.bsplayer.com) comes with advertising. The last version without adware is 1.37 build 826 still available at https://www.clubic.com/telecharger-fiche10424-bsplayer.html and https://bsplayer.fr.softonic.com/ but it doesn't run on Vista.
The best for last:
Prefer GOM Player, currently at version 2.1.8.3683 (http://www.gomplayer.com) as it runs everywhere from Windows 98 to Vista, it supports subtitles and provides access to many settings like brightness 'E,R', contrast 'T,Y', color saturation 'U,I', screen resizing '1 to 8' or 16/9 format (ctrl-F6 to F10), slow motion 'XC' or frame by frame 'F'. GOM Player is completely free, stable, ad-free, elegant, lightweight, and fun to use. The only downside is that it’s still only available in English, but it will evolve further. Press F2 to open an AVI film then 'S' or Alt-E to select the subtitle file. It also allows you to adjust the subtitle synchronization. If there are multiple audio tracks, just press 'A' to change the language. It comes with its own codecs for DivX, it's ultra-simple. In my opinion, this software is far superior to all the others. Yesss!

Thank you very much for your answers,
I've been trying to read these subtitle files for an hour, I installed VLC, and got rid of Windows Media Player on my computer....
It's really well explained, thank you very much.

Hello,
I have the same problem. LG BD390 salon player that won't load .sub subtitles even though it's supposed to accept them; I can't figure out why and I'm not used to the new equipment. The player reads .srt files just fine.
Thank you for your responses.

Bonsoir, can we after assembling the video and audio file (sub or srt) encode everything into a single file (including subtitles) using VLC?
Simple as pie, open your video with VLC Right-click or Menu Bar » Video » Subtitle Track » Open Subtitle Track and point it to your .sub file ;) Simple as pie
Hi,
I just want someone to explain a little thing to me.
I have a movie in AVI format and an IDX file plus a SUB file.
I would like to burn the movie onto a DVD so I can watch it on my home DVD player.
How can I make the subtitles appear automatically, or possibly set them as optional, like on a purchased DVD?
Thank you.
P.S. In this case, I have Media Player Classic on my computer, and I can't open the subtitles when I open the movie.

Compared to all the complicated software like DVDFab and others that I've tried, it’s a joy, user-friendly interface and subtitle management without any issues!
Adopt it!
