    Yes. SUPER doesn't support subtitle streams, as I recall.

    You might want to extract the subtitle stream from the original MKV. In that case, install both MKVExtractGUI and mkvtoolnix to the same directory, and use MKVExtractGUI to extract the subtitles. Then, you can give the subtitle file(s) the same name as the AVI, and your player will probably be able to display them when you play the video. (Unless you want the subtitles hard-coded into the video, which is a slightly different matter. )

    Aww.. u mean i have to extract the subtitle from the .mkv n save it, so when i play the .avi the subtitle will come out? That mean i will have 2 files, the .avi file n the subtitle file?

    EDIT: If the subtitle is on a seperate file, how do i get it into the .avi? I only 1 to have 1 .avi file. Or is there a software whereby i can convert the .mkv to .avi wth subtitle in it?

    Thanks

  4. Search for Baldrick's guide of mkv to avi conversion. Though you should folloiw Ai Haibara's advice of extracting the video, audio and subs from the mkv file and follow Baldrick's guide of combining them.

    Thanks for the link ^^ i try convert it n it works ^^ now the subtitle came out but i saw some "spoil" image when i am watching the converted .avi file, how do i fix it?

    And is it possbile to fix a particular problem in 1 .avi by converting again to .avi? Like there is a part whereby the whole image turn green.

    Possibly corruption in the file. Playback can compensate for minor issues, so they may not be as noticeable. However when converting, even minor data problems can cause very visible artifacts. You could try converting again, or try extracting all the streams and working with the contents outside the mkv container. But it may make no difference at all.
