How to Make VobSub Work with a Nero Recode
Nero uses VobSub-based subtitles in Recode 2 and above. Built-in subtitles should play normally in Nero Showtime, as long as you click the "Subtitle" button to make them active. You can play VobSub subtitles using the appropriate filter to display them. The plug-in loads the subtitle and plays it automatically whenever you launch the video. Since the subtitles are separate, they are watchable only on a computer with a supported media player.
