Hi all,

I've ripped a DVD using dvd::rip and I've ripped subtitles pt-2 also.
I have in a folder the following files:
pmatos at euler 001 $ ls
twoweeksnotice-001-000001-sid02.idx  twoweeksnotice-001-000002.ogg
twoweeksnotice-001-000001-sid02.ifo  twoweeksnotice-001-000003-sid02.idx
twoweeksnotice-001-000001-sid02.sub  twoweeksnotice-001-000003-sid02.ifo
twoweeksnotice-001-000001.ogg        twoweeksnotice-001-000003-sid02.sub
twoweeksnotice-001-000002-sid02.idx  twoweeksnotice-001-000003.ogg
twoweeksnotice-001-000002-sid02.ifo  twoweeksnotice-001.dvdrip-info
twoweeksnotice-001-000002-sid02.sub  twoweeksnotice-001.ogg

(The movie is divided into 3 parts)
So, to watch the first part I do:
mplayer twoweeksnotice-001-000001.ogg -vobsub
twoweeksnotice-001-000001-sid02
(this command is just a line even though it may appear wrapped)

But I get:
(...)
Playing twoweeksnotice-001-000001.ogg
No matching VOBSUB languge found!
Cache fill:  0.00% (0 bytes)    OGG file format detected.
(...)

Then I went to man mplayer and I saw the -vobsubid option and I thought
I needed to add this option with id 2 since it was the ID it had in the
movie. So I did...
mplayer twoweeksnotice-001-000001.ogg -vobsub
twoweeksnotice-001-000001-sid02 -vobsubid 2

But I still get no subtitles and I get the exact same output complaining
about no matching VOBSUB language found! :-|

Can anybody help please?

Best regards,
