Dear forum members of Videohelp.
I'm a big fan of anime. Fansubs have released some series in .mkv which i wanted to play on my normal dvd player. In order to achieve this, I had to convert an MKV container file with an H.264 encoded video and AC-3 encoded audio to an AVI container file with an XviD encoded video and, optionally, 2-channel MP3 encoded audio.
I've followed a very clear guide here on how to do this, step-by-step (using videodub, mkvtoolnix, and some plugins)
It all worked well and the result is quite good. However, i found a slight error in the subtitles and I really don't know how to solve this.
So far i've tried:
- using the same font that came with the mkv container
- changing it to a different font
- changing the 'style' of the font (western / turkish/ whatever)
I guess I dont need to explain myself when you see this picture:
Does anyone know what I should do in videodub or the "textsub" plugin to fix this?
edit:
FIXED! Solution given by Midzuki
Thanks Midzuki!The original subtitle text-file is encoded in UTF-8.
Open it in Notepad and then save it as a new
"ANSI-encoded" text. HTH.
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!
