Topic: SVPTube 2 Captions Won't Display

Hi! New to this forum.

I've set the desired caption language to download in SVPTube 2, but they never show up in MPC-HC. They don't even show up as selectable in MPC's list of subtitles available.  I've attached a picture of my subtitle settings. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Can you give an example youtube link with subtitles not displayed with SVPtube 2?

Re: SVPTube 2 Captions Won't Display

Any video that has captions won't have displayed subtitles. For instance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSvNhxKJJyU definitely doesn't work out.

Subtitles from your link are works to me in 2 players: mpv player and MPC-BE.
Not working in MPC-HC.

To see subtitles I choose player from menu: SVPtube - Video player - mpv player.
And before click play I select American English

Video players compatibility -> Subtitles on YouTube (VTT)
MPC-HC = No
MPC-BE, mpv = Yes

It used to be plain .srt format in the past but now they switched to .vtt

Re: SVPTube 2 Captions Won't Display

Well, that explains it. I'll try switching to mpv and see if that does anything.

Re: SVPTube 2 Captions Won't Display

Well, switching to mpv worked. Thanks.
