Text in movies

[Crüe]

Is it possible to add the text to a dvd rip? I've heard there are some programs which can add the text...are there?

What exactly do you mean by a "dvd rip"

I think, because you posted in the DivX forum that you mean that you have a dvd-divx rip (file with a AVI-extension)
And by tekst i assume you are meaning subtitles.

If i'm assume this all correct ...........then the answer is YES

What you need is:
Virtual Dub
Subtitler plugin for virtual Dub
A subtitle file
A srt to ssa converter program

With this you can edit subtitles PERMANENT in your avi-file

There are also players that will let you load both the movie-file and the subtitle and then play them together on your PC
With this you don't change a thing to your files

Reason for putting them permanent into your avi-file is something you would do if you want to make a vcd out of it to watch on your standalone dvd-player
If you don't want that, then it is not worth all the hassle and just download a player which support subtitles (like BS-Player)


If you need more help with anything, just post your questions here and i'm sure you will get the answers needed.

Thanx a lot for your answer, your absolutely right about what I mean.
So the things I need:

Virtual Dub
Subtitler plugin for virtual Dub
A subtitle file
A srt to ssa converter program

Where can I download them?

Thanx again in advance.

for permanent subs in virtualdub or nandub use vobsub

a guide on subs can be found at nickys (a must read anyway!)
