Are you trying to burn them as a DVD, or DATA?

[redwudz]

With .srt subs and Xvid/Divx video, they just need to be in the same folder as the video and the player should find them. That would be burned as a data disc.

With a regular DVD, they are part of the VOBs and are added in while authoring to the DVD format.

And welcome to our forums.

Create a folder on your MAC, place the video file and the subs inside the folder (they have to be named the same thing ie movie.avi movie.sub) and then burn the folder making sure you recorder software is set to close or finalise disc.
