Using Shark007 codecs with x64 components (MP4 not showing subtitles)

[zay]

Like the title says, I am using the latest version of Shark007 codecs along with the x64 components, and I am unable to get mp4 to show subtitles.

Hi.

The subtitles are embedded in the mp4 or are in separate notepad file?

 

[zay]

Sorry for not mentioning that earlier, these are notepad files, .sub or srt.

 

[panais]

The video file and the notepad subtitles needs to have the same name.


Example:


Video name Xmen4


Notepad subtitle name Xmen4



Try this and post back with results.

Thanks, I know about the sub and video files needing to have same name, they are as such. AVI and mkv files play subtitles fine, it is the mp4 that are not playing fair.

hi zay,long time no see, i suspect shark will drop in on this thread soon. i am on the lappy atm and its x32 so i cant check out the x64 codecs.
will have a search as im sure i saw shark tell someone in the past how to enable mp4 subs

edit : think this will do it.

disable Windows Media Foundation on the SWAP TAB of the installed settings application

Thanks boobah, yeah been a while since I have been in here. Been doing a LOT of traveling for work as a Microsoft Exchange Engineer. Finally got some down time, so I decided to play around with my MC. I see you moved up in the forum, congrats.

I use CCCP - Combined Community Codec Pack

The link to DL the codec pack is broken, only the insurgent link works.

 

[boohbah]

yeah thanks zay ,

disable Windows Media Foundation on the SWAP TAB of the installed settings application

did that work for you, on the swap tab

 

[zay]

I had it disabled already, see screenshot of my current setting.

 

[boohbah]

ah ok, not sure then, have you updated the pack recently.
its currently v3.5.0

 

[zay]

That is the most current version, unless he release a new version 2.3 seconds ago (like the cell phone commercial, lol)

 

[boohbah]

ok ,well i am out of ideas , like i say im sure shark will stop by this thread soon,
gonna head off now ,it was good to see you.
take care zay

 

[zay]

You too boobah, thanks for the help anyway. Gonna give that cccp a try.

 

[boohbah]

[Shark007]

On the Config TAB of the 64bit Settings app, click the button to access, [Icaros Thumbnailing]
click Deactivate, add .MP4 to the optional filetypes retaining formatting and then click Activate.
For subtitles, you need to disable the Microsft Video decoder on the SWAP TAB. Do this in the 64bit app for Media Center playback.

Here CCCP Download

cccp ia 100% useless in this scenario.
He has a 64bit operating system and Windows Explorer,
which is producing the thumbnail, is a 64bit process requiring 64bit codecs.
