So here is the thing I've got an avi file with the following info as show by Media Coder:
This video obviously does not play on my standalone DVD/Divx player.Code:General Complete name Format : AVI Format/Info : Audio Video Interleave File size : 282 MiB Duration : 24mn 26s Overall bit rate : 1 614 Kbps Writing application : Lavf52.17.0 Video ID : 0 Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec Format profile : Baseline@L1.3 Format settings, CABAC : No Format settings, ReFrames : 1 frame Codec ID : H264 Duration : 24mn 25s Bit rate : 1 411 Kbps Nominal bit rate : 1 346 Kbps Width : 624 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 1.300 Frame rate : 29.970 fps Resolution : 24 bits Colorimetry : 4:2:0 Scan type : Progressive Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.157 Stream size : 247 MiB (87%) Writing library : x264 core 60 Encoding settings : cabac=0 / ref=1 / deblock=0:0:0 / analyse=0x1:0 / me=dia / subme=7 / brdo=0 / mixed_ref=0 / me_range=4 / chroma_me=1 / trellis=0 / 8x8dct=0 / cqm=0 / deadzone=21,11 / chroma_qp_offset=0 / threads=8 / nr=0 / decimate=1 / mbaff=0 / bframes=0 / keyint=250 / keyint_min=25 / scenecut=0(pre) / rc=abr / bitrate=1346 / ratetol=6.1 / rceq='tex^qComp' / qcomp=0.50 / qpmin=10 / qpmax=31 / qpstep=3 / ip_ratio=1.25 / aq=0 Audio ID : 1 Format : AC-3 Format/Info : Audio Coding 3 Codec ID : 2000 Duration : 24mn 26s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 192 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel positions : L R Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz Stream size : 33.6 MiB (12%) Alignment : Aligned on interleaves Interleave, duration : 32 ms (0.96 video frame)
Now this file comes with an idx/sub pair. When I use media coder to render it into a supposedly normal avi file I get a file with these properties
Notice that the codec is FMP4 and not xvid which is what I chose. The duration is reduced to 2 minutes so the encoding wouldn't take long (it does not work either with the full length file). The subs, however appear just fine and I can see the file just fine in my pc, but when I try to use it in my player i get the very uninformative "unsupported format" error and I can't see the file.Code:General Complete name : H:\does_not_workavi Format : AVI Format/Info : Audio Video Interleave File size : 39.9 MiB Duration : 24mn 26s Overall bit rate : 228 Kbps Writing application : Lavf52.39.2 Video ID : 0 Format : MPEG-4 Visual Format profile : AdvancedSimple@L5 Format settings, BVOP : No Format settings, QPel : No Format settings, GMC : No warppoints Format settings, Matrix : Default (H.263) Codec ID : FMP4 Duration : 1mn 59s Bit rate : 1 127 Kbps Width : 624 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 4:3 Frame rate : 29.970 fps Resolution : 24 bits Colorimetry : 4:2:0 Scan type : Progressive Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.126 Stream size : 16.1 MiB (40%) Writing library : XviD 1.2.0.dev49 Audio ID : 1 Format : MPEG Audio Format version : Version 1 Format profile : Layer 3 Format_Settings_Mode : Joint stereo / MS Stereo Codec ID : 55 Codec ID/Hint : MP3 Duration : 24mn 26s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 128 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 44.1 KHz Resolution : 16 bits Stream size : 22.4 MiB (56%) Alignment : Aligned on interleaves Interleave, duration : 2 ms (0.06 video frame)
If I encode the video with Format Factory:
This one works in my standalone dvd player but does not render the subs, so it's useless (The file gets processed but the subs just don't appear on the video).Code:General Complete name : 01ws.avi Format : AVI Format/Info : Audio Video Interleave File size : 373 MiB Duration : 24mn 26s Overall bit rate : 2 133 Kbps Writing application : MEncoder SVN-r29352(20090610-gcc4.3.3) Writing library : MPlayer Video ID : 0 Format : MPEG-4 Visual Format profile : AdvancedSimple@L5 Format settings, BVOP : Yes Format settings, QPel : No Format settings, GMC : No warppoints Format settings, Matrix : Default (H.263) Codec ID : XVID Codec ID/Hint : XviD Duration : 24mn 25s Bit rate : 1 992 Kbps Width : 624 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 4:3 Frame rate : 29.970 fps Resolution : 24 bits Colorimetry : 4:2:0 Scan type : Progressive Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.222 Stream size : 348 MiB (93%) Writing library : XviD 1.2.1 (UTC 2008-12-04) Audio ID : 1 Format : MPEG Audio Format version : Version 1 Format profile : Layer 3 Format_Settings_Mode : Joint stereo / MS Stereo Codec ID : 55 Codec ID/Hint : MP3 Duration : 24mn 26s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 128 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 44.1 KHz Resolution : 16 bits Video delay : 33ms Stream size : 22.4 MiB (6%) Alignment : Aligned on interleaves Interleave, duration : 26 ms (0.78 video frame) Interleave, preload duration : 522 ms
If I try to use VirtualDubMod, when choosing the TextSub Filter I choose the .sub file, however the filter does not load it, I don't know why as It doesn't say anything, and the OK button in the dialog is never enabled.
So I can't use VirtualDubMod.
Is there any, any way that I can turn this to a normal playble avi with the subs?
Thank you very much for any help.

What stand-alone player do you have? I have Philips dvp 5990. I use AviAddXSubs to "embed" the idx/sub subtitles. First I use VobSubStrip to make sure there's only one language. The subs should go on and off with the subtitle button on your stand-alone. The only player I know that will show them on the PC is DivxPlayer.
The other consideration is most Divx DVD Players won't play DivxHD. The resolution has to be 720x576 or lower.http://milesaheadsoftware.org/

You can also try XVID4PSP and see what it can do. I play around with the settings to get what I want and got from there.
Also MPEG4 modifier may be the answer as well -
I have a BGH BD701X.
I can't use the program that you just said (I've tried) because it does nothing. I generate the new file and the new file just doesn't have the subs in them.
But just in case can you show me how you add them?
Thanks. -
MPEG4 Modifier does not seem to have any subtitling options...
As for the XVID4PSP I'll try it and see what I can get. -
XVID4PSP did the trick.
Now the final file has the subtitles and works on my player.
Thank you very much!
