In the extensive (and mostly incomprehensible) configuration interface there were all kinds of options regarding the subtitles, but not a default subtitle encoding. I thought a simple configuration setting might solve the problem, but it wasn't the case. The specific Romanian letters (diacritics/diacritice) appeared like weird characters and it got annoying. I have been using VLC Video Lan Player for a long time, mostly for myself, since it can show instantly movies that are incomplete and gets past most video performance issues in Windows by mostly ignoring the default video renderings and using its own codecs.īut there was always this problem with the Romanian translations. For 'all' interface: Input/Codecs → Subtitle codecs → Subtitles → Subtitle text encoding.For 'simple' interface: Subtitles/OSD → Default encoding.Update : I've just taken another look at the VLC menu (version 2.2.0) and the way to get to the encoding is: Tools → Preferences → My computer supports arabic i think, because it normally allows me to open read and edit documents written in arabic, however when i open the srt file in notepad this is what i see I googled the problem and 90% of people said the problem was that the srt file was saved with a font incompatible with arabic, or that the encoding needs to be changed to UTF-8, UNICODE, ANSI i changed the font to arabic and in the sample it shows arabic clearly, i tried the sub after saving it as UTF-8, Unicode, and ANSI and everytime i came across the same wierd symbols When that didn't work i thought there was a problem with the actual subtitle file, so i downloaded different ones, from different sites, and different extentions (.srt. I tried first changing the player, (hiplayer, mpcstar, windows media player classic, vlc, windows media player,) I use windows 8, and i am not very good with computers though i know enough to get by and am good at using google, however recently i have come across this problem, ad after trying almost all the methods mentioned in previous similar questions at different sites i am still encountering the same problem.Īrabic subtitles always look something like this
