How to add subtitles to a DVD?!! - Croatian & English tutorial

[blutach]

Start the DVD where you like it - with PgcEdit - guide here. Sounds like you need to import your DVDs commands from the original DVD to the newly muxed one. PgcEdit can do this too in one click operation.

What did you remux with? For all the versatility you need with subbies, get subtitle creator. See this also.

Not sure if the is pertinent to this thread or not but, I would think "SubRip" would help. - http://membres.lycos.fr/subrip/

Blutach - The guide to put subtitles postet in this thread it wasnt so good.I have found a pdf tutorial that i have found it in the zip file of the soft subtitle creator in the link you give'd me and that helped me alot.I used vob blanker for adding the menus at the start of the dvd.But i still have some problems.I aded to the movie 2 new subtitles.Prior to burn i have tested the movie with vlc player and subs worked properly but after the burn my dvd player havent recognised just the first sub that was originaly on the disk.Whats wrong?Can you help me,or someone else have an ideea??Thanks in advance.Bye.

Can you check your title's PGC in PgcEdit and ensure they are part of the domain stream attributes?

Also double click on it to bring up the PGC Editor. Are both your new streams there (top right quadrant of table)? If not add them. I trust you have given them unique hex IDs.

After you have done this, run the PgcEdit macro, Fix number of streams in VTSI/VMGM or whatever it's named.

As to positioning, I suspect you have found not to use the non-visible area of the screen

Congrats on your persistence. All this trial and error seems frustrating at first but after you do it once, it will be second nature.

Good luck.

Hello you all,

I would like to post here a small question related to subtiles. I have 2 files that I want to join using Virtual Dub. I would like to put first the subtitles before joing the parts. I don't know if ffdshow can help me, or if I'll have to use another program. What do you recommend me?

I have a problem.. Well, here's the thing: I'd like to add subtitles to my episode DVD.. I'm kind of lost in VOBs so please help me!

The DVD has 4 episodes and some extras.. What VOB to pick in VobEdit to Demux the DVD? Also I have a problem - if I try to demux file by file (vob by vob) i get just a bunch of little 7 minute movies.. Why is that? I really don't know how could I add subtitles to eps that I can't even see

Have a nice one...

Try to divide episodes with DVD Shrink and then you can edit anything you want...

Hi, I was wondering if I could get a bit of help with this. I've been working with the programs listed for about a few weeks (along with a few other supplimentary programs) and I still cant seem to get results.

The goal I am hoping to accomplish is to rip individual episodes from a DVD and remux them as individuals so that it doesnt end up being one long movie of the show. Using DVD Decrypter, I've been selecting the correct chapters for the single episode and ripping with no problem. Demuxing hasnt been a problem either.

I started running into problems with the txt2sup program where I was getting errors telling me that I either had the incorrect file format (Vobedit was producing .sup files?) or that the correct framerate wasnt being shown in the first line of code. So I resorted to using the program "subrip" that is successfuly ripping .srt files for me so that I can use the txt2sup file. Things run smooth after that point and remuxing isnt a problem until i watch the final video. With no subtitles.

Any pointers that you could suggest?

I have Nero, and have been trying to burn my subs using nero and sub authoring for about a month now. I am beyond frustrated and the above seems even more confusing. Please tell me that there might be a software available that could add subtitles to my movies that I have downloaded. I am a newbie, and the trial and ERROR part of the past month has convinced me that this is much more challenging than it appears. (if anyone has successfully done this, could you consider emailing me so we could use baby - steps thru this process? ) auntychristy@aol.com. THANKS! Christy

It was difficult to find software that correctly supports subtitles, but since I have found ConvertXtoDVD I have not had any problems so I just stick with it (despite it not being free but works great for what I need).

I just make sure to get the subtitle formats ConvertXtoDVD supports (SRT, .SUB/IDX, .SSA, sub -opensubtitles).

Once I added the video file to be converted to dvd, I expand the file info, and right click on the subtitle entry and add the subtitle file.

When played on my dvd player I can activate the subtitles in the menu or with the remote control. (these should be pretty clear steps for those of you who want to try)

Are the other softs out there supporting other subtitle formats? there are always ways to edit subtitles but if I can avoid this step I do.
