How to get BSPlayer, VobSub and ffdshow work together?
 

Hi,
I use BSPlayer 1.00 RC1 Build 803, VobSub 2.23 and ffdshow 2003.10.28.
Also I have avi film and subtitles (srt or sub) in the same directory.
VobSub is set to "always load".

Problem:
VobSub is not automatically loaded while playing film with bsplayer :(
I know that it is somehow related to ffdshow, BUT
if I open this film (or any other film with external subtitles) with media player,
vobsub is correctly loaded!

I really do not want to uninstall ffsshow or use media player instead of bsplayer.
Also vobsub works better with international fonts.

Any ideas?

Solution
 

Well, I found one solution:
Rename bspfilters.sam file to bspfilters.dat in bsplayer directory.
Add AddFilter {9852A670-F845-491B-9BE6-EBD841B8A613},DirectVobSub string after [BSPlayer filter def file], but before [Video] .
This long number is GUID of VobSub.
Now BSPlayer will load vobsub even when you don't want to :)

I find BSPlayer's native feature of being able to play subtitles like SubRib .srt and MicroDVD .sub very versatile and more than adequate, also in other fonts. You can set Subtitle-properties in a very flexible way. Did you ever give it a good try without VobSub? (Of course you would need Vobsub for the other players, but personnally I never use them, so I dont bother)
