    That would depend entirely on the DVD player(s) in question - not all of them support the same formats, or even have subtitle support at all (for AVI/MPEG/etc. files).

    The most widely-supported format is probably the plain-text .srt, with no formatting (there's an unofficial version of .srt that attempts to add formatting through HTML codes, and so forth, but I don't think any DVD player supports that).

    You cannot use these formats for DVD Video playback either, only along side AVI/MPG files, if the player supports them. If you want to use these subs with a DVD Video you would have to mux them into the DVD structure. There are several guides for this.

    Can you provide more detail on what you are trying to do ?
