Windows 7 - How to load Movie Subtitle in Media Player 12???

I've just installed Windows 7 Version 6.1 (Build 7000)
But i cannot load the movie subtitle when playing Windows Media Player 12 although i have install K-lite Codecs (newest version) for Media.
Can anyone support me with this issue, plz ?


P/s : KM player can load the subtitle but i still love using Windows Media Player

have you right clicked and does anything show pertaining to subtitles??


-----------------if you are not adventurous please do not try this-------------------


----this might break something, but you knew that when you installed 7 didnt you...lol -----

disable the mfpmp.exe because i dont believe the wmp 12 codecs (are they still called that?) can handle subs



i am thinking your have a avi file (most like with a separate subtitle file )

what you want to do is let ffdshow (and haali + directvobsub) get preference over mfpmp.exe....

just change it back as it might cripple the playback of some of your files....

C:\Windows\System32\mfpmp.exe

take ownership and rename it

after watching the file rename it back...

Thanks much for ur support but actually i cannot get a point for ur solution.
Can u explain more details ?
"C:\Windows\System32\mfpmp.exe

take ownership and rename it" => How can i do this?
Thanks again!

take ownership Tutorial

and then rename it....
be sure that wmp is not open....

I think it just doesn't work fine in my situation, only the Media Classic Player can load the subtitles (although i take the ownership of the "mfpmp.exe") Anyway, thank you for your support.

did you rename mfpmp.exe??

Yup, I renamed it. Then Played a movie (with a subtitle) by Media Player 12 but nothing happened.
I mean it just loaded the movie but the subtitle did not.
Have u got any solution instead?

there should be another one in the winsxs folder...
search for it there


C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-mediafoundation_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7000.0_none_0cc9156848b93f63

you might not be able to rename it...

just move it...

also make sure subtitles are enabled in ffdshow...

sorry it me so long but As far as I know you cant disable mfpmp completely....

as you see there is a few dlls that take care if it is disabled....

if you were to move these files and/or rename them then you cannot watch video or audio....

Why don't you just run the movie through MCE, there are subtitles in there and they can easily be turned on/off?
