Playing 10-bit files on Linux OS

If you're using Linux, some says VLC is the only media player that can play 10-bit files, but I don't think so. I've tried 10-bit files using VLC but there's one problem: it can play, there's a sound, and a picture, but no subtitle, even though the subtitle options is turned on. I've Fate/Zero & C³ (Cube x Cursed x Curious), both are 10-bit file. Tried both & the result are the same, no subtitle.

Therefore, the only player (so far) that can play 10-bit files without any problem: GNOME MPlayer. I've tried it & yes, no problem at all. The video, and subtitles are fine.

Anime C³ (Cube x Cursed x Curious) in 10-bit, played using GNOME MPlayer.

GNOME MPlayer may be available from your software channel. You can install it using Synaptic Package Manager or Software Center. Check your distribution for details.
