With totem-gstreamer they work most of the time but often I get an "Internal
data flow error" (screenshot attached).  When that error appears if I just
click ok and then click on the play button, it works and the subtitles show
up fine.  That error only appears with movies that have subtitles.

With totem-xine the subtitles do not appear at all, but I also do not get
that error ever.

This bug happens with any .srt file.  I've attached part of one file here.
All you need to do is rename the file to the same name as the .avi file that
you are playing and put them in the same directory.  Then the subs should
appear at the time intervals specified in the .srt file.  So for the
attached file test.srt, just put it inside a directory with a movie called
test.avi or test.mpg and the subtitles should appear.
