ffdshow?

enable subtitle decoding on ffdshow by tick the check box, then put negative value one the "delay:" input box.

what kind of sub format? im using ass and srt type, decode video and resize with ffdshow, they look nice for me.
unless u r using wrong output colorspace

u mean overlay mixer + directvobsub? sub will look jaggy anyway unless u do resizing,
u need to resize atleast 1.5x from original video width and height to "anti-aliasing" ur sub
or if u have nVidia card, try use mplayer with opengl renderer.

try media player classic first easy for troubleshooting.

just make sure u r using VMR7/9 renderless.
or just install directvobsub to use with default overlay mixer.

i got the same thing if i didnt use vmr renderless
change to vmr renderless and restart player.

with or without also can, VMR7/9 renderless doesnt matter as both also can load subtitle, the DirectX 7/9 has nothing to do with the VMR renderer

still cant load subtitle? weird=.=
if ur video renderer has changed to VMR renderless, the notify windows will not show up anymore.

u can use the default overlay mixer anyway, but u must use directvobsub, it render subtitle even on overlay mixer without eating high CPU usage(unless u have mid-end GPU) like VMR renderless.

Do u have Direct x 9.0 installed?
the problem u have is kinda complicated,
try directvobsub, less problem than VMR

go to "Run" or command prompt type dxdiag and hit enter.

yup the sub look sharper than before with directvobsub resizer, but not video.
you could try ffdshow resizer and leave the directvobsub setting to default, ffdshow resizers(ffmpeg softwarescaler) are mmx optimized, so it might be faster than directvobsub resizer.

install directvobsub,
but u will get jagged font problem like Skylinestar,
just resize the video by using ffdshow or directvobsub.

dual channel?
1. easiest way, mute your left or right speaker
2. ac3filter, or ffdshow audio decoder, configuration will be harder.
you must use one of the audio decoder above to mute left or right channel,
then using the matrix filter to "upmixing" left or right channel to both speaker.

First, you must make sure ffdshow is your default audio decoder,
second, enable the matrix filter, and tick "custom matrix"
example

enter the both 1 on input channel L to output channel L(eft) and ®ight, and clear the input channel R(put zero),
you will end up with Left channel audio output to you PC speakers.

^ first one usr mpc-hc with VMR7/9/EVR Renderless renderer to load subtitle, second subtitle use FFdshow or Directvobsub to load,
untested but it may works

Why dont export to ASS sub format?
IIrc SRT format is more simpler than ASS, for example you cant use custom fonts with SRT if the user's computer doesnt have that special fonts,
it will revert to default fonts, while ASS support embedded fonts that can be attached during remuxing to MKV with MVKToolnix, if im correct.

Never tried it before, but iirc most fan made anime subtitile are made using this software.
