![]() You cannot imagine how many people would be grateful for this. If nothing else, the secondary one could be provided as a settings string of overrides until a GUI provided for it. Subtitle settings would need to be independent - I think a second subtitle would inherit the settings of the primary one with override options. The result of combining two subtitles in this way is fantastic for learning - but it's a bit of a process, and it would be ideal if VLC provided this ability inherently. I then use the website to combine the two subtitles into a single subtitle file, with the English grey #808080 top centred and Turkish yellow #ffff00 bottom centred. So the Turkish is synchronised with the audio, but the English 1 sec early. I get the two subtitle tracks - 1 English (my native language), 1 Turkish (learning language) - I then use the freeware Subtitles Workshop to shift the English timing early by 1 second, this means I will see and understand the English meaning briefly for 1 sec before the Turkish subtitle comes on which I can focus on. I agree, I have to do a slightly convoluted process at the moment. Now what I wrote above is far from being an elegant solution, but it works seamlessly and uses only free/open software. Also saw some people were joining two srt files together, which is a viable alternative if you have them, but not really if you need a subtitle stream with non-latin complex characters (Japanese in my case), for which OCR is terrible and srt files are not available (only vobsub style bitmaps). PS: I've tried so many alternatives I can't remember, anything from KMPlayer (sometimes works, but it's terrible buggy and full of crapware/adverts), good old BSPlayer (supposed to work but fails to display subtitles in modern mp4 files), etc. VLC media player is a free and open source cross-platform multimedia player that plays most multimedia files as well as discs, devices, and network. ![]() There is an increasing number of multicultural households around the world, and this is a much needed feature. Now here is still hope that some future version of VLC has native support for multiple subtitles. * Start Key Presser, choose "Subtitler Lite (Mod)" in the application list, Single Key "Enter", Time Interval of choice (I use 100ms), and click "start".Īnd there you go, your video should play showing both subtitles (top and bottom) simultaneously. ![]() * Start video play in VLC, choose your primary subtitle (displayed bottom), and click View -> Subtitler Lite (Mod) A Window with a "Refresh" button will appear. * You need the secondary subtitle in srt format (primary subtitle can be embedded in the mkv or mp4 file of choice), name it exactly the same as your video file and put it in the same folder. If you want to say listen to two videos or songs from an album you hold Control left click to open multiple files at once or press Control A to select all. * Mederi's "Subtitler (lite)" VLC extension ( link) ![]() I'm just writing to explain how I solved it, and hopefully it'll help others.
