Adding subtitle to a movie ripped with RipIt4Me...

[lmgc10]

Hi...

To all the gurus out there....

Here is what I did....

I ripped Pink Panther R1 to my HD using Ripit4me (I can't remember which version was used, as I always upgrade when it tells me to do it). 1 Click always gives me good rips... After that, I was going through Shrink and found that it didn't had spanish audio or subtitles.

One friend of mine, got Pink Panther R1-4 in South America that had spanish subtitles on it. I wanted the R1 because it was wide screen and the R4 is full.

By the way, the R4 didn't have the hard copy protection and I ripped with decrypter to the hd. I then used PCGDemux to extract the sup file and keep it.

I demuxed the main R1 movie and tried to add the spanish subtitles to that one. For muxing I used Muxman.

Well, the end movie has the audio and the subs out of sync by almost 1 second ahead of video. I though that maybe the spanish subtitles for being for full screen was the cause of the problem but I muxed all the demuxed original files and the problem was again found.

I opened the R1 ifo file of the movie (VTS 2) after Ripit4me did his work and found in chapter 1, 5 cells being the first four of 00.00.00.18 each one and having a layer break also. Clicking to preview in ifoedit on those cells only shows frames of the sony intro.

I ripped it again and the result were the same...

So the big question is: Why if I demux a movie and muxed it again with the same files I got, the audio and the subtitles are out of sync?. Is because of those small cells?.

Is the first time I try to do it to a movie ripped this way. Before, I didn't had this kind of problem.

Thanks in advanced, and sorry for my poor english. I hope everything is clear enough.

I think I know what you need to do. If the subs are out of sync, get DVDSubEdit (see link in my signature). This will allow you to replace the subs exactly where you want them to be time-wise.

As for the audio, when you demux with PGCDemux, you need to take note of the AV Delay. When you remux with muxman, you need to insert this delay exactly as it was in the original.

Of course, muxman will build a DVD project with the title in VTS_01. You will probably need to replace the title (once it is correctly muxed) with VobBlanker.

Since this has nothing to do with RipIt4Me, I have transferred it to our Authoring & Editing forum.

Thx for the fast reply....

I had muxed too many movies.... I always check the audio delay and applied before muxing. Never had this problem before.... For that reason I asked if maybe those small cells could be the problem.

I will be doing these week UltraViolet. I own the R1 without spanish on it and I am going to extract the subtitles from a R4 dvd. By the way, I use the original subs (*.sup) files from both dvds.

One question, If I demux a movie and muxed it again with the same files I got after demuxing it, why those subs are out of sync?. and I am talking about this particular movie.

This is the first time that I had found this situation..., for that reason, I think that the rip is the problem here with this movie.

Thinking about it, can it be the layer breaks in each of those 4 tiny cells the problem?.

Thanks in advance...

P.S.: Why I want to keep the R1 version with the subtitles added, because the R4 are mostly full screen.

The LB flags should not be the issue, although they can cause a slight delay as you know. However, muxman should take care of this, if you ensure the flags are set afterwards.

Probably best to do this:

1. Starting over, remove the tiny cells in PgcEdit.

2. Run FixVTS over the title domain where you have removed the tiny cells.

3. Demux.

4. Remux with your new subpicture stream.
