    When I encode video with *.srt subtitles hardcoded into the picture, I normally use Virtualdub in fast recompress mode, with an Avisynth script as source. The avisynth script looks like:

    LoadPlugin("c:\Windows\System32\vsfilter.dll")
    ...
    TextSub("D:\blaah\monty.srt")

    I use a separate SSA style script to control font, size, alignment, and other layout features of the subtitles.
    The style script has the name {scrtfilename}.srt.style and is put in the same same directory as the *.srt file.

    This technique is described in the wiki:
    http://avisynth.org.ru/docs/english/externalfilters/vsfilter.htm
    - see "SSA Syntax".

    In the final video, this generates a text in the begin of the video "AB CD EFGH", preceding the text contained in the *.srt, with a duration of approx 10 seconds. Quite annoying.

    How do I get rid of the unwanted AB CD EFGH in the beginning ogf the video?

    Your style file should have the name of the srt, not of your script.

    monty.srt
    monty.srt.style

    {scrtfilename}.srt.style
    EDIT: never mind, probably a mis-interpretation of your typo.
