Keep wondering why my subtitle (srt) cant be displayed when I watch my avi movie with VLC. Though it was not compatible in Ubuntu whereby I was using XP last time which displayed well. Ah Hah. I got the luck solving the problem by edting a file /usr/share/applications/vlc.desktop .

Just need to edit vlc.desktop with su privileges and replace %U for Exec=vlc with %m .

Here we go, double click your avi file and the subtitle will be displaying well.

Without editing this file, you actually can get this problem done by drag the avi file straight into opened VLC. Kinda annoying. Why dont try this way to save the trouble.

The latest movie I have watched to share. I give 3 our of 5 star for this movie’s rate. You can see lots of fight and fight action among human with blood exhausted vampires. This vampires move fast and silent when hunting, but they can’t fly or turn to bat. Storyline quite similar with previous vampires movie that watched. But will be the first time to see if a human can turn to vampires by injected vampires blood to human body. For wat? To gain power against with those powerful vampires which hard to kill by human during the day without sunlight.

Story line

Producer Sam Raimi (“Spider-Man”) brings audiences the terrifying thriller “30 Days of Night,” set in the isolated town of Barrow, Alaska, in the extreme northern hemisphere, which is plunged into complete darkness annually for an entire month. When most of the inhabitants head south for the winter, a mysterious group of strangers appear: bloodthirsty vampires, ready to take advantage of the uninterrupted darkness to feed on the town’s residents. As the night wears on, Barrow’s Sheriff Eben (Josh Hartnett), his estranged wife Stella (Melissa George), and an ever-shrinking group of survivors must do anything they can to last until daylight.
