Thanks,
I have been able to find Chinese subtitles but have had little luck getting the media players to display actual chinese characters instead of garbage.. I am making a little progress with that so I think I might stick to that pursuit being most of what I watch I like to put in Xvid/Divx for ease of access anyways.

I know what you mean about the bootlegs, when I was in China someone on the street tried to sell me Spiderman 3.. lol, the front looked totally legit but the back had shots from Ghostbusters.
