The end of subtitles

[zinc]

subtitles workshop is great for helping me synch my subtitles however i have loads of mp4 videos and subtitle workshop cannot handle mp4's. is there a plugin or another programm that will allow me to synch my subtitles for my mp4 files.

thanks.

You may be able to open the mp4 files in Subtitle Workshop. After you click Movies -> Open... , click the box for "Files of type:", scroll down to "DivX (*.mp4, *.Divx)" and select it, then try to open your files.

It seems odd, but sometimes supported file types won't open using "All supported files"

If this fails, you could could convert your mp4s to disposable, low audio/video quality avi, just for subtitling. Or, if converting will take too much time, it may be possible to make an Avisynth script for the mp4s, open the avs files in VFAPI Reader Codec (with the ReadAVS add in), and open the dummy avi in SW. It works... audio/video sync is a little "iffy", but it does work, and at least there's no waiting around for conversion.

thanks for your help, i've managed to make the Avisynth script but i cannot get hold of the ReadAVS add in i've tried googling it but all the sites i tried are down. can you tell me where to get it please.

Hi-

Did you try searching this site:

at the same time i also found this

I've never been able to find the readAVS.dll anywhere.

Although I tracked it down somewhere else when I went looking for it one time, I just went to the WarpEnterprises page at the AviSynth.org site and found it there:

Strange. Wilbert must have found it later and added it.

You could also try ffdshow/makeAVIS for frameserving.

Really though both AVISynth scripts and mp4's work fine here in Subtitle Workshop.
