    My Lite-on 5005x burns dvd-video with an empty subtitle track. I was wondering if the subtitle track had any purpose whatsoever?

    No purpose unless you need it. I'm assuming a DVD, not a Divx player.

    Subtitles would be part of a VOB file, and not normally visible when looking at a DVD in Explorer. and would not be a separate file in the standard DVD structure. If you have a separate file, then most players would ignore it. Maybe for computer software players as a data file?

    See 'WHAT IS 'DVD' to the upper left for the DVD structure. <<<<<<<

    Also you might visit our Subtitle Forum for more information.

    And welcome to our forums.

    the subtitle is in the vobs and when selecting it on a dvd player no text appears. However thanks for clarifying the issue.
