DivX avi and subtitles

[Epidural]

I was asked a question by a friend that I couldn't answer, I thought I'd come here.

He has a DVD to DivX rip AVI file. He also has a separate ripped subtitle from the same DVD. He wants to know if it's possible to encode that subtitle file to the AVI so the subtitles are superimposed over the movie.

Is this possible? If so...how?

Thanks,

Ep.

I'd do it with Smartripper 2.41 (to rip the DVD to the hard drive), then convert to DivX with with DVDx 1.7

In the Input Option of DVDx:

Subtitle:
Show subtitle.
Default is : None (if the movie has subtitles, they'll show up here)

Subtitle Offset:
Vertical offset in pixel of the subtitle. This values is automaticaly adjusted
if the subtitle goes out of the screen
Default is : 0

I've done it one chapter of one movie just to see how it works (just fine!).

As always, your mileage may vary; professional driver on closed course; always wear a seat belt; don't drink and drive...
