Subtitle ripping and re-using!

[multipasser]

Hey

I'm not actually a dvd auth noob. But ive recently done a fair big dvd project and came to many stupid things you can come across while authoring )

If you rip a existing DVD (because I needed highlights from movies) and you need the subtitles for use in Dvdlab! You need to rip the vobs, load the ifo in Subrip, use the OCR and save it as srt! Go in DVDlab, load the srt and it converts it BACK to bitmapped (in .sup format I think)

Why the hell do you you to convert already BITMAPPED subs to TEXT and back to Bitmap!! Why isnt there ANY program that reads RAWSUBS (like dvddecrypter or smartripper saveiii)?????

ifoedit,rejig,muxman reads bitmapped subs...but you can not make any menus...

I would ask in the dvd-lab forum if they could add sub/sup support.
