Why does WB releases start up with English subtitles (1 Viewer)

[murray]

I have purchased HIGH SOCIETY - LIFE WITH FATHER -
OBJECTIVE BURMA - CRIMSON PIRATE - THE MASTER OF
BALLANTRAE - THE STORY OF SEABISCUIT - GIANT
and CASABLANCA and unfortunately all of them starts
up with English subtitles so I have to go into the
menu and remove it. I have tested these DVD´s on
8 different DVD players and it´s the same thing!

Can anyone explain why Warner Brothers releases
behaves like that or how we can solve this problem -
thanks for your help!

I have this problem but only on my Pioneer player. It doesn't do this on my Panasonic palyers.

Yeah, this happens on my Mintek players, but not on my Panasonic, or my portable Polaroid. It's about half-and-half on my PC; not sure why.

Yeah, the same thing happens with many Columbia titles on my Apex 600A, but Warner Bros is usually fine. Depends on your player.

Doesn't happen on my Panasonic RP91 or Philips-Magnavox 825 players.

Warner dvd's let you change subtitles "on the fly", so you don't have to go back to the menu to remove the subs. Just toggle the "subtitle button" on your remote control.
