How to use .ssa files.

I have movie trailers and stuff that I want to play in WMV. They play fine but there are suppose to be subtitles for them becaue they are in japenese. It comes with a MPEG-4 file, a NFO file, and a .ssa(SubStation Alpha) and I cant get the subtitles to work. I followed microsofts directions and big suprise those dont work. I cant find any Codecs or anything for it. Can some one help me out?

.ssa files are basicly subtitles.

I suggest you use VideoLAN to play the subtitles + movie/ect.

Click here to download

Mainsite is at: http://www.videolan.org

VideoLAN is a lightweight media player (only 7.9mb, free, and various formats such as MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, ogm, ect)

It will be able to play your trailer + the subtitle file. You don't need the NFO file really.

After you've downloaded, heres how to use VideoLAN. 2 Steps here.

Wow it works perfect. Plus I can even change the font size. Thanks for the help ztx. I dont think I would have ever figured it out.
