    Unable to use subtitles in Windows DVD player


    I purchased Windows DVD player from the app store and it plays DVDs well.

    The only thing is that I can't get it to display the subtitles embedded in my DVDs. I click on the little subtitles icon at the bottom left of the main DVD player screen when a DVD is playing and nothing happens.

    Can anyone help?

    :)

    Unable to disable subtitles in Windows Media Player

    Hi folks,

    I rented Shutter Island last night and was unable to disable the subtitles in Windows Media Player. Is this something to do with regional playback protection? Does anybody have a workaround to fix this issue?

    Thanks in advance.

    Unable to disable subtitles in Windows Media Player

    I'm in Spain, so there is no problem there. However, I'm trying to avoid installing any additional third-party software or codecs and I'm hoping that there is a way to configure Windows Media Player. It is ridiculous that I am unable to play an original DVD without subtitles in the latest version of Microsoft's Media Player.

    I have no additional codecs installed: I only use WMP for DVD's and KMPlayer for everything else, and up to this point I have experienced no problems. I assume that I could tell KMPlayer to used the Windows DVD codecs, but if there is a way to fix this issue within WMP, I would prefer that and I would prefer not to install any third-party codecs.

    I should add that when I watch the film in Spanish, no subtitles are displayed, it is only when I change the language to English that I am unable to deactivate subtitles.
