    First of all, thanks to Baldrick's excellent instructions, I've ALMOST gone from no understanding to completing this project!

    When going to see "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," the audience has lines to scream at the screen.
    I have a DVD with a live audience recording as the 2nd audio track & I wanted to add the 'audience participation' subtitles as a 2nd subtitle track as a 'training DVD.'

    I used DVDFab to rip the main movie with only the original English audio & subtitles, & the audience audio track.

    Using "Method 1", I demuxed/remuxed the original into a "wizard" directory.
    Using SubtitleCreator, I exported the original English subtitles (jpgs) to an "Old Subs" directory.

    Then I made an XLS to dissect the Notepad file into the separate parts so I could alter them & have the XLS piece together the new Subs.

    (I think this is where I went wrong: )
    I had the XLS find the largest horizontal, vertical, width, & lines from each subtitle & reassign that number to all subtitles.

    I then altered the subtitle text, successfully finished the process & watched the VOBs on the PC.
    (Selected both letterbox & widescreen for both tracks...)
    On the PC everything is perfect.
    On the DVD player, several subtitles are missing & several are lagging.
    Others are exact...

    Any ideas?

    Also, if the problem is my setting the position wrong, how do I know what to set them at? The original subtitles had a different H,V,W, & Lines for each individual subtitle...

    Update:
    I tried the other TVs/BluRay standalones in the house. The others work. Very strange...
    Samsung BluRay in bedroom=perfect.
    Panasonic DVDR/VCR in study=perfect.
    Panasonic BluRay in living room is the only problematic one.
    It even has the same menu as the one in the study.
    It says the currently installed firmware is the newest.
    My plans are to pass this out so I'd like to ensure its working in random standalones.

    Here're a few of the subtitles. ONLY #14 works in the living room...

    1
    00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,300 <w 33,360,660,3 ci=15,14,13,12,1 t=0,15,15,15 /w>
    lower case subtitles are the original. |UPPER CASE IS SHOUTED BY AUDIENCE.
    2
    00:00:07,333 --> 00:00:14,367 <w 33,360,660,3 ci=15,14,13,12,1 t=0,15,15,15 /w>
    {brackets are characters' actions} |*asterisks are things YOU do*

    00:00:14,433 --> 00:00:18,000 <w 33,360,660,3 ci=15,14,13,12,1 t=0,15,15,15 /w>
    A LONG, LONG TIME AGO,

    SING LIPS!

    Michael Rennie was ill

    And Flash Gordon was there
    15
    00:00:47,167 --> 00:00:49,270 <w 33,360,660,3 ci=15,14,13,12,1 t=0,15,15,15 /w>
