Czym jest plik IDX?
An IDX file is a subtitles index file created and used by VobSub, a program that allows users to extract subtitles from DVDs. It contains a list of plain text settings and timestamps used to show the subtitles that a .SUB (VobSub Subtitles) file contains. IDX files are always paired with accompanying SUB files.

VobSub is a free program that allows users to extract and play the subtitles stored on DVDs. When VobSub extracts subtitles from a DVD, it creates two subtitles files: a SUB file and an IDX file. The SUB file contains images that are shown as subtitle text. The IDX file contains metadata that tells a media player what color the subtitle text should appear in, where the subtitles should appear on-screen, and when and in what order to show the images the SUB file contains. Subtitle settings typically appear at the beginning of an IDX file, on lines that begin with #, and timestamps and image references appear later in the file, on lines that begin with timestamp:.
Using VobSub's DirectVobSub component or a media player that supports the SUB / IDX subtitle format, users can play back DVD-format subtitles alongside the movie they were meant to be used with. This can be useful if, for example, you acquire an .MP4 copy of a movie and want to watch the movie with subtitles. If you can locate a SUB and IDX file for the movie, you can load and play them as subtitles. SUB and IDX files can also be used to embed subtitles in .MKV files.

When paired with its accompanying SUB file, an IDX file can be used to play subtitles alongside a movie using DirectVobSub (Windows) or VideoLAN VLC media player (multiplatform).
To use an IDX file as a subtitles file in VLC media player:
- Make sure your SUB and IDX file are stored in the same directory.
- Begin playing the movie you want to use your IDX file with.
- From VLC's menu bar, select
- Navigate to and open your IDX file.
Because they are plain text files, you can also open and edit IDX files in any text editor. However, editing an IDX file may cause the subtitles it is linked with to play incorrectly.
