no subtitle filters in avidemux 2.6

[Amika]

i just installed avidemux 2.6 today, but found out that there were no subtitle filters available inside.. did i installed it wrongly?

Have you installed the plugins: COMMON and QT4?
For linux these would be: avidemux3-plugins-COMMON-2.6.0-8175-Linux and avidemux3-plugins-QT4-2.6.0-8175-Linux

thanks Jan Gruuthuse for the fast reply, but i'm using windows 7 pro 64bit.. is the two plugin you mentioned available for windows platform?

Wouldn't know, are other filters present? Could be ASS subtitle filter is not present/enabled.

If you're lucky perhaps your player supports external .srt subtitles?
Use same name for both video and subtitle file? like:
timelapsefotografie640x360.mkv
timelapsefotografie640x360.srt
