subtitles are garbled

[wobblyjohn]

I download Thai subtitles (idx/sub) and need to get them to display on dvd using convertx or my western digital media player but some files look garbled, whilst others display correctly, all of them display perfectly when I use VLC is there any software I can use to correct them

Thanks in advance
John

You could try avstodvd or dvd flick and see how they handle the idx/subs.

From what I have read today, I might need to alter the resolution of the idx/sub file but have no idea how to

btw I'm using MKV files and would ideally like to have them on my new media player because I get a better resolution

Try converting them to SUP format using SubtoSup

SUP format can be edited with DVDsubedit, to change position, colour.
