.OGM File Question

    Okay, I'm using mplayer OS X to play all me files on mac, but I have a problem in that I want to watch some anime episodes encoded in .ogm format, and I can't figure out how to switch audio streams on it to the english ones, or how to switch on the subtitling. Anyone know how to do this with mplayer? Or if this doesn't support it, of another player for mac that does?

    By the way, you don't switch the subtitles on for .ogm files in mplayer by going into file going to controls > info and selecting a subtitle file as in .ogm there is no seperate file for subtitles as far as I know, it's all encoded into the one file, I may be wrong though.

    Why are you using Mediaplayer on the Mac when there are many much better apps available ?!?!

    Anyway the software you need for playing streaming media is VLC and can be downloaded free from here.

    All supported formats can be seen here.

    I think he's talking about this , rather than windows media player.

    But to answer the question, you can pass extra flags to mplayer through the preferences panel. I think the one you'd be looking for is the -sid <stream number> switch.
