[MPlayer-users] Can't play a -vobsub file

[Diego Algorta Casamayou]

Hi there.

This is my first post to this mailing list, but I've searched the 
archives and couldn't do it. I've also seen the relevant sections of TFM.

<- What I need, is an example of how to invoke mplayer with a vobsub ->

I have ripped a DVD with english audio and a spanish vobsub for the 
subtitles.

I used dvd::rip. When I click the "View vobsub" button, the subtitles 
show ok. But when I try to use it directly with mplayer, it doesn't work.

This is the output:

As you can see, it complains saying: "No matching VOBSUB languge found!"

I've tryed using -sub, -ifo, -vobsubid, but nothing works.

Suggestions?
