Error opening filters!

Another test:
I transcode a video file with a seperate subtile file.
When I put the subtitle file in the same directory with the ffmpeg.exe program,it work correctly. But when I put the subtitle file in a different directory with the ffmpeg.exe program,it didn't work and return the above errors.

I am eager to solve the problem, even if to pay for it. If you can do it, please email to me: ​lucky.bordon@gmail.com

I don't think this is a valid ticket.
If you need support (on Windows) feel free to ask on the user mailing list (or the Zeranoe forum), no payment necessary but please understand that this is a bug tracker, not a support forum.
