Getting Rid of Subtitles on Ubuntu 13.04 AcidRip Movies

Hit the pull down to select the English subtitle track (perhaps not needed).
Check the box to have subtitles go to a separate file.
Don't type anything in the box below the subtitle controls.

HERE IS THE SECRET YOU HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR:
IF YOU PREVIEW THE VIDEO IT WILL HAVE SUBTITLES EVEN IF YOU SEND THEM TO A TEXT FILE.  IF MPLAYER FINDS A SUBTITLE FILE IT WILL SHOW THEM.  THEY AREN'T REALLY IN THE VIDEO.  DELETE THE SUB FILE, GLUE YOUR HAIR BACK ON YOUR HEAD, AND BE HAPPY!!!!!

I put the finishing touches on the Android tablet holder for my truck with a fresh coat of paint.

I found out the magnetron in my microwave oven is dead

Luckily a new magnetron is less than $45. The old magnetron had a whole blown in the side of the connector for the high voltage. it would light up yellow from the arcing inside of the connector.
