I have tried this a million times. Checking this preference and then playing the file displays them perfectly. This is on 0.22, with pretty much a stock Ubuntu 9.1 install. I'm playing a mkv file with a separate srt file named appropriately. Perhaps I have discovered a bug?
There was a bug refered to on list a short time ago related to the
naming of the srt file. Something to do with . in the name, IIRC you
only want one . in the srt filename, and thats the . immediately
before srt
so the.shining.srt will not work, but the_shining.srt will.
But check the archives.
