Because “config” is a file, not directory :)

I can go to /home/user/.mplayer but I can’t go inside for config. Is it wrong when I write “cd config”? It says “can’t cd to config” but I don’t know what I should do. I should encode it for Turkish subtitles, it is windows-1254. Help please!!!

I think .sub and .txt are two different subtitle formats, so simply changing file extension might not work. I might be wrong, tough. I always have and use .txt subs in the first place, so don’t know how .sub are actually working.

Thank you very much for this post. It works great, together with special characters, like Slovenian are. Many thanks again, Rok.
