    Hey guys i seem to have a real problem on my hands here.I cant find decent subtitles anywhere.Heres the deal.I an using both DVDit Pro latest version and DVDlab pro 2.I am attempting to add various subtitles to some movie files to burn to DVD.I found a few sites that have sub titles but whenever i download them and convert them to proper format using Subtitle workshop when importing them into DVDit.DVDlab i always get one of 2 errors those being "the subtitle overlaps the adjacent subtitle" or "subtitle contains an error or is imporper format" i've tried all suggestions i can find on google with no luck so im assuming this site i use just sucks for subtitles.

    If anyone has suffestions i can try that would be great or knows of any good subtitle downloading sites.Thanks

    While you're in Subtitle Workshop, you can try its error-checking routines (Tools menu, and in the Information and Errors submenu, there are options for error-checking and fixing.), then see if DVDit or DVDLab Pro continue to have problems with the resulting subtitle files.

    Thanks for the reply Ai Haibara,
    Actually i have tried using Error checking and fixing but everytime i do it comes up with around 34 error's usually saying the line is to long.When i choose the option to fix it says it can not fix the errors.I then tried fixing them manually which made them all gone by breaking the longer lines of text into 2 lines but when importing them to DVDit i still get the "error or improper format" issue.

    :EDIT:Man that was hell but i finally managed to get one subtitle working in DVDlab Pro.Now rather then make a new topic i have a small question maybe someone can answer.I've added my Audio,Video,and subtitle streams in my project i notice there is a small preview area to see the movie file.Is there a way i can preview everything together (audo,video and subtitles) at once to make sure everything is in sync?I dont see an option for it and my search here turned up empty.
