subtitles supported

[Animaitor]

Hi all. As mentioned here: http://www.iaudiophile.net/forums/viewtopic.php?id=4021 it seems that the A2 will support subtitles. I know this PMP is not out yet but I was wondering if any of you has a clue on what type of subs will be able to handle: txt, srt, sub, ssa, smi... Thanks!!

probably txt and something else. txt would probably be the easiest because its just...txt.

That's what I though. txt shouldn't be a problem to be supported by the A2. Hope it can handle more though ^_^ Sorry if this is offtopic but for some reason Cowon only released the 20Gb X5 version in Japan. Hope they don't do the same with the A2... Domo arigatone, Konechiwa.

? I have the X5 and i bought it in the US. I live in the USA. Its not only in Japan...

your welcome animaitor.

smi is the only format listed so far.

Konechiwa, sorry for the confusion. What I wanted to say is that in Japan you can only get the 20Gb iAudio X5 but not the 30Gb... Hope Conwon releases the 30Gb A2 version (the 60Gb would be great :D) as well as the 20Gb. I know in Japan we have a problem with space but 10 Gb more or less will not hurt anyone ;)

smi... well, we can always use a subtitle editor converter to change the extension of a sub.
