Is it possible to see asian subtitles (assuming you've got the sub files too)  in movies w/ xbmc?

Thanks!  <

In theory any sub file should work. Although I've never used any.  <

What do you mean by "asian" subtitles?  Subtitles for HK/Japan/Korea movies, or subtitles with Chinese/Korean/Japanese characters?
If it's the former, .srt subtitle files work fine.  Even if they're muxed into an OGM (and I assume MKV).  If it's the latter, I think VobSub subtitles are supported (even in XBMC), but the April releases have broken them for me.  <

Thanks for the info, all!

I meant seeing asian fonts while watching, say like english movies (for my parents).

So it sounds like with current versions of xbmc, that's not possible?

Thanks!
