You're saying you have to convert it to some subtitle format DVD Architect recognizes? I don't use the program for authoring and have never seen subs like that before. Some sort of obscure XML-based subtitle format, I would guess. Anyway, find out what your authoring program accepts. Next, find out the format of your subs. Ask the guy that gave them to you. Ask him if he can convert them to something else for you. Ask him what programs can accept them and convert them to something else.

What's the extension on these things? MovieSubtitle.??? And what does DVD Architect accept as input? If they're from a retail DVD, go back and get them in a more common format.

Maybe someone else will recognize them. I hope they're of better quality than the English language subs I've seen for Tamil movies, most of which are just atrocious. The two lines you've shown us aren't very promising.
