Default true "stop"

Is there a way to stop a movie, but to keep the settings set in that session? Since I can't figure out how to set default subs, I have to set it each time I play a movie. So, I would like to stop it, change to alternate display, and play it. My video card does not allow display switching while a movie is playing (or even paused). I tried pressing stop, but BS player only pauses it, which does not allow me to switch. This is the first player I have ever seen that has this problem. All other players allow stopping and playing, while keeping that session's settings.

To set subtitle defaults: (rightclick >) Options > Preferences > Subtitles (...etc...)
Is "Remember movie settings" selected under
(rightclick >) Options > Preferences > General [General settings] ?
(and - also there - how about "Close file when 'Stop' button is pressed" and "Remember last movie position"?)

Tried it, doesn't seem to have any effect. I'll try the other advice you gave, though.

I found a way to do a "true" stop in the general settings (close file when stop pressed). However, subtitle settings are not recorded and restored the next time I hit play. It turns on the first set of subtitles each time even after I checked the setting to remember video file settings. Does it matter that I launch it from a playlist?

So my suggestion to also look (i.a.) at "Close file when 'Stop' button is pressed" wasn't so bad after all.
You mention it always selects the first subtitle-file.
I don´t know if it helps you, but there is also a possibility to default BS.Player to e.g. picking the 2nd (or 3rd) subtitle available:
(rightclick >) Options > Preferences > Subtitles [Subtitle properties]
To the right of (Close)-button you see the option:
Default subtitle [1] (and also "Default subtitle language")
Is that option (to change the number (resp.language)) of any use to you?

I tried changing from 0 to 1, 2, 3, 4, and it does not seem to have any effect. It still chooses the first subtitle in the mkv.

The subs are all English. Some are commentary, though.
