WMP11 and Subtitles   
Hi!

Does anyone know if WMP11 will handle subtitles differently from older 
versions? I would lilke to be able to show subtitles in a layer on top of the 
video without actually encoding the subtitles into the media file before it 
is streamed.

All help and tips appreciated!

No, I've tested it, it's pretty much the same. There's still no
facility for text overlays as you might do in Quicktime - I'd use
instead layering in your video editing tool to manage the overlays as
video images.
