Hi

Anyone know how to fix this. I have XP and have installed East Asian Language Pack. I downloaded Quantum of Solace (Bond Movie) and got the subtitle file from gom.tv. However the subtitles will only display as square boxes..It's as if I never bothered to install the language pack

Can you help?

Try changing the subtitle language in the player that your using...Or you might need a codec or something for the subs...

If your using Gom player, it should work fine, being korean.

You probably have to change the font of your subtitles (in the player's subtitle options) to a Korean font.

When you say subs. One suspects and assumes. SubWoofers. Please from now on use the title. Subtitles.
Thanks,
Wesley

The only way to see Korean text instead of the squares is to buy a legit copy of Windows Vista 64-bit and install it.
