Is there an option to change the SIZE OF THE SUBTITLES on any given movie format you are playing on this unit (i.e. small, medium, large)?

Frank Booth, Usually not. The subtitles are on the actual disc, so that would be added to the picture while the movie played. --Mr. S

Hi C. Nunez, I will play a Japanese movie I just got with SRT file subtitles and I'll let you know the results. The alternative to this media box is a DLNA app on your computer (to play on your big screen) and I don't see advantage of DLNA over this WD box. I used TV MOBILI as a DLNA for months until they wanted money for going over 10 GB. This little box did the trick and even my nine year old son can run it.

Depends on what you mean by "captions." If you mean old-style cc--white letters against a black rectangle, they will only play if you use composite input or component at 480i. Starting with 480p, that kind of cc is not supported by any player; HDMI doesn't support cc either. Switchable subtitles will play on anything.

Unfortunately no- you can only switch the language through the DVD player itself via the Settings

I do not have anything with the PAL format, so I don't know. Maybe someone else has tried it. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

The mute button worked. Thanks for the tip on the subtitles. I've got a 32" TCL.

Have you tried to adjust your screen size through the television controls? I have not had this problem. I wold ask the manufacturer or Nintendo support. It is always possible that the converter you received is defective and returning it for a new one would fix the problem. Contact the seller and try that. It might help. I have a large screen television and it fills the complete screen just as a movie would. Good luck. I hope you find a solution.

Did You ever get an answer on this. I have the same deal, including 4:3 aspect DVDs which are stretched to what I call "fatscreen". I have fussed with everything imaginable. If you have an answer, please email me at &lt;michael.steeno@us.army.mil&gt;

I've tried pushing the Info button on the remote and a display menu pops up in the corner and scroll below the little speaker icon there is a sub menu to control the subtitles and language track.

Just figured out how to change the caption size in the tv app. It's easy:1. Play your show2. Pause the show3. The pause, ff, rwd menu will pop up4. The options fir cc are at the bottom right of that menu. 5. Scroll to it and select it6. Make your changesYou're welcome.

I've never used that setting, but I don't think so. There is software that plays in that format.

On the DVD's yes, but with the MP4's, you would need to have had the subtitles to convert on to show. There would be no "on/off" for this piece though.

I'm not sure, but all my movies are widescreen. it'll have the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.

Did you ever find out if it would play PAL format DVDs? I wonder it as well, i have one and i want to buy something on PAL format but i am afraid that once i buy it the player will not play them. Anyone know?

The sorting of files/folders was also discussed with customer service at KDLinks. I pointed this out to them and they claim that they will address it in a future firmware upgrade. I also pointed out that each time a new dvd .iso file is played, the Subtitle function seems to be "On" by default and it was suggested that they default subtitling to "Off". Hope this helps.

Yes, I can play both VIDEO_TS style and ISO. I prefer ISO to have the whole movie in one file, instead of having to navigate multiple video files like VOBs. Best of all, the Option button on the remote pulls up subtitles, audio, and every other function found on the disc itself. Aios will even pull up a separate SRT subtitle file in the same directory.

Hello FolkFan! I watch movies in widescreen (16:9) format all the time without a problem. Now, keep in mind that I am using an Xbox 360 as the video source and that the Xbox does allow me to output in different formats. I would think that most dvd players you would buy today would have options for widescreen output. I hope this answers the question! -Dave
