The present invention relates to a subtitle file loading method for loading subtitle files from a disc to a memory of a disc player. The memory has a first memory block and a second memory block. A first group of subtitle files is first loaded into the first memory block. Then, the first group of subtitle files in the first memory block is transferred to a subtitle file decoder for decoding, while a second group of subtitle files is loaded into the second memory block. Thereafter, the second group of subtitle files is transferred to the subtitle file decoder for decoding, and a third group of subtitle files is loaded into the first memory block. The steps described above are repeated in an alternative process until all subtitle files are loaded into the memory.
