If you want help than give us MORE information. How did you try add the subtitles to the wmv? What software? Are you making permanent subtitles???

[d2idan]

first sorry for the bad english
now i dont make my subtitles. i have them ready in SRT
and i try to add them in MKVmerge like i already said

and then i convert the mkv to wmv and i didn''t see subtitles.
how can i see subtitles on wmv in xbox 360 ? there's a way ? guide or something that i can do

somene .. ?

Obviously River Past doesn't read subs from inside an mkv container. Convert with something else that can read the subs and encode with the subs in place. Note - the subs will be permanently encoded into the video, not switchable. If you can't find something that will read subs from inside the mkv container, use something that can use external subs and feed it the srt file you already have. If you are happy to encode to mp4 instead, you could look at Xvid4PSP. It appears to be very versatile, has settings for Xbox 360 output, converts mkvs (without re-encoding if possible), and accepts external subs.

Yep, try xvid4psp. You can also try automkv to load the mkv and external subtitles and make a wmv.

i've tried automkv but there's a lot of setting and errors when i try to encode :

and i did what i had to do with nero digital audio

and when i use xvid4psp it says then i need framework 3.0
but when i install framework in the middle it get stuck.
what should i do ?
someone pplease .
its about 3 days without answers my question is really difficult ?

[d2idan]

someone ?

[Baldrick]

Have you tried reinstall .net framework? Because xvid4psp is your best solution, https://forum.videohelp.com/topic352374.html .

And yes, mkv conversion can be this difficult. I would instead build/buy a HTPC if you want to play such formats on a TV.

Don't know if Encode360 is suitable for you, but you can give it a try

The Big Brother VSO is based on FFMPEG, anything that is based on this you just can get everything, if they don't mess that of course

I can do everything in FFMPEG, and I have all the knowledge of all commands, but I'm not a guru of it, however

Take FFMPEG and you will get all cross platform there is - LINUX, MAC, etc...; , is only a matter of GUI build - and that can be in Java for better compatibility

is just a matter of GUI development target platform

Do you know Java ?
