HELP: how to display Japanese subtitles
 

I have a problem with Japanese subtitles.

I have no problem displaying English subtitles but when I want to display Japanese subtitles they come out as SQUARES.

I changed my Windows XP Regional Settings to Japanese (in Advanced & Regional tabs) just to get the correct codepages loaded. I can even read the Japanese correctly when I open the subtitle in Notepad).

Players I've tried are:
Media Player Classic
BSPlayer
VLC Player
(all the same, just SQUARES for subtitles).

Anyone know how to correctly display Japanese subtitles?

Did you also select the correct font script in subtitles preferences in BSPlayer ?
