Just a few simple questions regarding the Vobsub procedures.
'After indexing you'll see the the following screen. Select the right subtitle track in the marked dropdown list. You can also define the colors for your subtitles and the transparency and move the subs if you don't like them at their current place
- ok,l but what is their 'current place' . how can i check this, without having to play the DVD with the correct subtitles? The red square in the centre of the larger sqaure is indicating what? the default position of the subtitles? .i.e. default position is always bottom centre - so if i move the red sqaure down, am i moving the subtitles even further down?
Then press OK. After a while when it's done indexing press OK to get back to the filter selection. VobSub will have created 3 new files in the directory you indicated before (to save the index file). These files are named like your ifo file, for instance in our case vts_01_0.ifo, vts_01_0.idx and vts_01_0.sub. Keep these files for the moment. These files can be used in DirectVobSub for later playback in Windows Media Player. If you want these kind of subs (you can turn them on and off in WMP) then you can remove the VobSub filter from the filter list now. Otherwise leave the filter there and you have the subtitles directly in the video. Leave VirtualDub/Nandub open.
what does it mean , 'keep these files for the moment' - what happens to these files after 'that moment'. do i not need them later?
do i not need these these files when actually burnign the cd?
basically i want the option of turnign the subtitles on or off, dependent on which soundtrack I am playing - does this mean i must go thru another operation with DirectVobsub? (is direct Vobsub part of Vobsub - ie I shoudl already have this application as part of the GordianKnot/Divx5 package? )
Where can I find a guide for DirectVobsub?
Thanks in advance
